Re: Skins getting heat again over name issue
 

[quote=SunnySide;1254015]The future of the Skins (or whatever they will be called) is in NoVa. At some point, perhaps 15-30 years from now when DS sells the team, I could see them dropping the "Washington" as well and adopting a Virginia name if not Virginia itself.

First "redskins" is changed.
Second, stadium is moved to VA.
[B]Third, team drops Washington and replaces it with Virginia. Give it 30-40 years imo.[/B][/quote]

I'll keep an eye out for that when I'm between 102 and 112 years old.

Oh as far the Ravens in Maryland, everything has to do with winning. When DC starts winning consistently we can revisit that topic.

[quote=BaltimoreSkins;1254026]I could see that especially as that area grows. Once again needing to be smart. You dump the Washington designation you are opening up to a team moving in. It is hard to imagine the NFL being okay without a franchise with Washington being the identity (at least right now).

In the spirit of name changes and thinking of what I think about with Virginia and Virginia residents here are my new name choices.

1. Squires
2. Fancy pants (basically a squire)
3. The Pink Polos[/quote]

The Squires were an ABA team back in the 70s.

Re: Skins getting heat again over name issue
 

I suggest moving the team out of any democratic or liberal run state or district period!

[QUOTE=MTK;1253891]No I don’t see that happening. I know conservatives love to come up with these ridiculous slippery slope arguments like gay marriage will lead to people marrying animals, but I think once the name changes it’s mission accomplished.[/QUOTE]



Exactly. Gun control = take their guns away. Mail in ballots = voter fraud. Wear masks = civil liberties being stripped. Police reform = do away with cops and go full lawless society. Meanwhile the biggest lying fraud in the world is cool in their book. I am a white male from the suburbs- I have no idea what it is like to be stereotyped or discriminated against but I have a soul. Take down every fuckin racist rooted monument and change the fuckin names. If it bothers you than you have bigger issues you need to deal with and probably need a hug too.

That's why I lead with that. Then I decided to keep going and have fun at Virginia's expense.

Now if the Skins could just get talent like Dr. J and George Gervin they'd be all set.

Re: Skins getting heat again over name issue
 

I'd LOVE if Snyder could pull an F.U. and say "Sure I'll change the name...to Virginia/Richmond Redskins", but the politics won't allow that.

Ditto, I'm not getting sucked in. The world would be a better place if we could separate politics and sports. It infiltrates everything, and ruins everything.

After 9/11, baseball united us for a while.


Now...shut up and follow orders...everywhere.

Sound like an unhinged clown. Meanwhile NYT post an editorial taking down Jefferson statues....this is exactly the slippery slopes that don’t exist, right? Wash post editorial today wanting to burn books? Applying social norms of today to the past is as laughable as it is dishonest.

I love how it is all about “the past” to you. Lol. Open your eyes Chico. Social norms are still a major problem.
