Can I make an observation?
We send congressmen and senators to Washington, DC, to perform the public’s business.
This seems like an issue which is NOT a legitimate function of our public officials. They should not be dealing with this on company time.
I really think that Dan Snyder knows how to run his team. And that includes whatever nickname he has for his team.
Due to political correctness, we are now making a federal case out of sports team nicknames???? Really????
I’ve heard talk that the Redskins may eventually want to build a new stadium, and that this stadium could be within the District of Columbia. If there are ever negotiations in that direction, look for them to be compelled to change their name, in exchange for them moving into the District.
If I were the Redskins owners I would offer to build the stadium on indian land with the stipulation that the name be kept as is.
I suggest they name it...Tomahawk Stadium!
