[QUOTE=Chico23231;1253638]Redskins isn’t a racist name period. To claim it is, you are being intellectually dishonest or you are a slow mentally. It’s one or the other.[/QUOTE]



Um...no. Ill take the word of one single native American over chico the cracker honkey. No offense of course.

[QUOTE=coggs;1253647]Depends how nuclear they go. When the Oilers first moved to Tennessee, they waited 2 years before changing to the Titans. Kept the color scheme, a little, but it was pretty much a re-brand. Will all depend on what the sponsors demand. FedEx, and Nike might pressure for a complete re-brand.[/QUOTE]



The crime there wasn’t the name change... oilers was stupid AF. But those uniforms [emoji3590]

[QUOTE=Chico23231;1253660]Folks we need to admit, this isn’t about offending Indians...it’s about offending white progressive people who find it their job to tell others you should be offended. Let’s start being 100% about this for once.[/QUOTE]



No dude. It is not. Just because Native Americans have been marginalized doesn’t mean they are extinct. I love how you blame progressives. Lol. The whole controversy started with native American tribes. Read about the history of the name man. At one point it was derogatory. I wish u would all stop playing the I dont hear any Native Americans complaining as if you all are surrounded by them. But forget historical connotations. If i started a team and called it the yellow skins tomorrow and the emblem was an asian person would that be ok? Im gonna answer for you n say no. Forget the intricacies and just look at it in an obvious manner.

[QUOTE=mooby;1253662]For once I agree with you, but even if only 10-20% of Native Americans are offended, they still exist. Don't act like every Native American is cool with it even if the majority are.



The reality though is this discussion is happening because $620 billion worth of corporate money told 3 major Redskins sponsors to do something about it. If they walk, everyone else won't be far behind. And Dan can't have his new stadium in DC if the name isn't changed. I got $20 that says the name gets changed and DC probably gives the RFK land to the Redskins at a deep discount or for free in exchange for less tax dollars going to the stadium.[/QUOTE]



How do you agree and than point out the fact that he is wrong? We all grew up REDSKINS fans. It sucks that we need to come to this conclusion but it is the right conclusion. 10-20 percent agree because the other 80 fall into the black man using the n word category. If you walked onto any reservation USA tomorrow you would never say yo redskin where is the bathroom? It has racist roots. Plain n simple. Do we as fans mean it in a racist way? No. Not a single one. But again if i started a team tomorrow called the yellow skins with an asian guy as the emblem you would be like dude are u crazy? I think we all just chalk “indians” up to some ancient past that is harmless but it is bigger than that.

In my head, the best case scenario is that DS will not budge and sells the team where a new owner changes the name. That's my best case scenario at this point.

Unfortunately his drive for money far outweighs his principles but God that is a great scenario

and moves the team out of the DC area. The team gets no support and the press vilifies them at every turn

Re: Skins getting heat again over name issue
 

How about calling them the Washington Indians. That sounds better than redtails or hogs.
Imagine the Dallas Cowboys vs the Washington Indians. Sounds better than Washington Redhawks and Generals. Just my opinion

Redhawks, Tails , are garbage names!

The "Warriors" is the best route to keep the colors and logo going.. Maybe even braves.
