I feel like Dirtbag has been slowly and methodically trolling the board for a month or so now.

I'm not usually a voter of the Democratic party (nor Republican here lately either) but I have to say hats off to Warner and Kaine for not signing this idiotic letter.

I'm feeling like it's only a matter of time before the name changes. We're probably gonna end up with something lame, like the Wizards. Here's your new football team DC, it's the Washington Salmon! Or the Washington Slugs! Whatever it is, it's going to be something so far from offensive, or aggressive, that nobody will ever demand it be changed again. Unless it's an animal, and then we'll have PETA protesting at the stadium.

This is exactly why I advocate burning down Congress, people are actually focused on this crap and not the numerous issues facing the country domestically and foriegn.

I think if Snyder is going to be forced to rename the team, they should just remove the name Redskins and have no team name. The media can call the team Washington and I'm sure the fans and much of the public will still call it the Redskins. If they can keep the logo, they should, if not keep the "R" with the feather as the logo.

Do you honestly believe they spent 100% of their time on this? Even 50%?

even 1% is too much with problems this country faces. Let's spend my/our tax money better than this.

How about that 1% of time and energy towards SOLUTIONS facing the native america issues today. Cycle of poverty, substance abuse, education...that's always too much to ask of our federal government...they(congress) can all f u c k off and die, how about that?

Best name-change idea I've heard. It'd be quite hard for me to ever call the Redskins by a different name; and if the name does change, I'll likely continue to call the team the Redskins. Dropping the nickname completely is a great solution.

Whatever. I think your'e being absurd. But you're entitled I guess

Re: Paintrain's all encompassing 'discuss all things offseason' thread (Version 2.0)
 

If the name must change, I would prefer that our traditions be preserved by simply referring to the team by our colors: The Washington Burgundy and Gold.

Sorry if i came across as a prick, but this headline grabbing stuff is absurd. We are all entitled, everybody knows that.

Re: Paintrain's all encompassing 'discuss all things offseason' thread (Version 2.0)
 

The name isn't changing anytime soon. Move along, nothing to see here.

Pretty much what we suspected. The reason very few Eagles spoke up and told the truth was because they were afraid that Kelly would want them axed next. So it's understandable that only a few, and mostly the more popular players, spoke up publicly. Locker room cancer? Nice try, Chip "A**hat" Kelly.

I agree Chico - they should spend zero time on nonsense, too many "real" issues already that need attention.
Edit: and apparently not enough time to deal with the real issues or there wouldnt be so many. So again - one second spent even pondering an NFL teams name is too much time.
