On Tuesday, the Washington Post once again went after the Washington Redskins nickname, calling the moniker “shameful” and “offensive.”
In his editorial, sports columnist Barry Svrluga demanded that NFL team Owner Daniel Snyder eliminate the name his team has had since 1933.
“Now is the time. Sorry, long past the time,” Svrluga wrote to the NFL owner. “If the NFL season opens as planned with training camps this summer, Washington’s team should do so under another name. Under its new name. Whatever that might be. Put it on the ballot, and then mail it in!”

Lions, Detroit Lions - they have been ‘Shameful and Offensive’ going on 60+ years...!!
“They even have me hoping the NFL season is cancelled.”
Ditto!
Yes they could!
I have some time on my hands so I thought of a few more:
Milwaukee Brewers is offensive to real beer brewers.
Pittsburgh Pirates, Tampa Bay Buccaneers , and soon to be Las Vegas Raiders all are an endorsement of lawlessness.
The Texas Rangers are named after the law enforcement agency by that name. Today’s radicals must be outraged about honoring a law enforcement agency , given their feelings about law enforcement.
The Washington Post sucks... Even Indians don’t agree with them...
Re-name them the Washington Kleptocrats!
I think posts were once used to tie up slaves. WP needs to change its name.
How about some alternative names: the Riot . . . the Anarchists . . . the Virus . . . the Flames . . . the Palefaces . . . the Monuments . . . the Virtue Signalers
. . .
Who is going to notice.
How about the Chicken Shits?
The only thing racist about the Redskins is their tolerance for the anti-white racists who kneel:
I honestly think this whole thing is going to drive Black
folks away. There are a lot of people out there who do not
like what is going on. They want stable neighborhoods and
economic communities for their families.
These are flat out anarchists.
They are destroyers and folks are catching on.
How about the Yankees? Now that would be a good petition for Conservatives to pursue. It will show how ridiculous this really is.
Those teams should be the poster children for the BLM lemmings. It fits with their agenda, after all.
Lets hope the ones who want safe and stable communities deign to vote that way. But I have big doubts given the history of the democratic vote.
Freegards
They should change their name to “Cavalry”.
Traditionally, so do I.
I lot of folks have found they like and respect Trump.
His approval numbers are quite high. We’ll see how that
translates in November. It couldn’t be any worse than it
has been.
Washington Post? Didn’t Washington own slaves?
Are you saying that if they weren't playing a children's game, they wouldn't be nuclear physicists? I am truly shocked that you would say such a thing.
