Re: In memory of our REDSKINS
 

It's hard to believe that the era of Redskins football is over. I'm an older fan so obviously the Super Bowl wins and all of the Redskin's greats who made up those legendary teams.

Recent memories, or not so recent, Santa Moss scoring on the two long bombs from Brunell to beat the Cowboys.

RGIII's rookie season, if only he had not been injured.

Like the rest of you, and it is sad that this is the end, "Hail to the Redskins!"

Going forward since the Washington Football Club is no longer the Redskins, I no longer have the emotional investment, and for a multitude of reasons, chief of which being the culprit for ending this franchise will NOT support Dan Snyder under any circumstances. It's also clear that the driver in the name change as with all things Snyder, was money and FedEx backing out.

Hate the name. That's a great uniform for Braves or Redhawks.

Re: In memory of our REDSKINS
 

I came home from the hospital in a Redskins onesie. My grandmother was a tiny woman of dignified composure, unless it was skins time. She would pace, often too worked up to watch the games, and peek around the corners unless they were winning. She was very proud of her native heritage and always thought the team paid homage to that respectfully.

My grandparents were my weekend sanctuary; they offered me reprieve from an abusive stepfather. I thought the skins played on friday as a kid, because my aunt and uncle in NOVA would tape the games and mail them to my grandparents who would pick me up on the weekends and we'd go home with pizza hut and pepsi and watch together. Not many people had VCR's in the early 80's in southeast Texas... so I grew up a skins fan in the heart of cowboy's country. I could spot my tribe in a crowd very easily in Texas.

I've watched them my entire life, and to me they represented a bond with the people who gave me love and trust in a world that provided very little of either of those things outside of their home. As an adult, few things bring me nostalgic comfort like the smell of coffee in a vehicle on a cold morning, rewatching the office for the umpteenth time, and Redskins games on Sundays.

On June 8th this year my grandfather passed away. This was not expected, he fell and hit his head and the brain bleeding couldn't be controlled. My grandmother wasn't allowed to be by his side for a week while he suffered in and out of consciousness in confusion and pain. She face timed him and the only coherent thing he could say was "help me". She was finally allowed to see him when they transferred him to hospice and he was too medicated to be present for the final day of his life, which he did spend surrounded by family. I can't imagine his last week on earth. It isn't the dignified end he deserved. A month after my grandmother lost her husband, she lost her other nostalgic comfort.

I can tell you this has solidified me in the anti-PC camp for the remainder of my days. I no longer care about offending others' sensibilities and sensitivities.

Welcome.

U summed up better what K Sheehan was trying to say about a week ago on the radio show. That the emotional bond with the team, regardless of recent history, is still extremely strong with many. Football passion is only comparable to the soccer club passion folks have in Europe and South America. People can say what they want, but you don’t have to and shouldn’t accept it, ever. The mob is cowardly, it’s always been viewed that way throughout history...don’t ever bend to it one second.

Lol real warm fuzzy love fest goin on here. Boogeymen mobs trying to get you. Fuck people’s feelings because of a football teams name. Fuckin hilarious.
The mob is cowardly. Has been through history. Dont bend to it. Stay strong. LOL. Put the bong down Chico you have clearly had enough.

BTW sorry about your grandfather EE21 and your poor grandmother who couldn’t be there. That is super sad. Im truly sorry. That aside Im not sure how ignoring other people’s feelings will help.

Our name was changed because 90% of Native Americans' feelings were ignored.

That crowd proclaimed "our feelings are more important than yours...and more important than facts too, and f@#% your history."


I understand, and share his frustration.

Laws are being passed and votes are being cast based on feelings. People jump to conclusions and burn down stuff before finding facts. That's our society.

Re: In memory of our REDSKINS
 

Quoting isn't working, but you asked 'what's ignoring people's feelings going to help?" and I have an answer. Constantly attempting to cater to reactionary emotions is toxic and devastating socially. This begins in our youth. Participation trophies and catering to the emotions of children robs them of the coping mechanisms needed to overcome adversity and grief. It is no wonder we have such a suicide and mass shooting issue in recent generations.

Socially, the bar of offense will never be static. Something will always need to be changed and the outrage will be directed and manipulated politically, as it is, and the fabric of society will not be strengthened by outrage culture, which is never going to be quelled by catering to it. This is currently dividing our world into factions and entrenching views, and strengthening opposition to just views in ways organically unfathomable. All of this is one big manipulative shitshow preying on the emotionally weak and reactionary mobs who stand on internet soapboxes and stir up outrage to exalt themselves among their peers. This culture is a snake eating its own tail.

So to recap people who are sympathetic towards others feelings are criminals.
Ya think you might have just made the mist generalized statement of all time or no?
If you dont have an issue with anyone’s life style id expect ya to be on my side when i say that meme with the “bitch” who dressed like a girl was wrong. Which is how this all started.
Also out of curiosity who has an issue with your lifestyle?

There is absolutely nothing wrong with saying “hey dont call that guy a bitch because of the way he is dressed”. There is something definitely wrong with calling him a bitch because of the way he is dressed.

We are constantly trying to better ourselves and ourselves as a society. Remember when women couldn’t vote and black people had to use separate bathrooms, etc etc etc etc. Should we have just left things alone? Of course you will always have extremists that are offended by stupid shit. That is not what is going on now.

Internet soapboxes? Last time I checked people were actively protesting in the streets. But nothing is good enough for you guys. Those people are now mobs and criminals because of a few bad apples. And their criminal activity is somehow far and above any other criminal activity that has been going on since the dawn of man. I bet there was a very similar sentiment to yours during the civil rights movement of the 60’s.

Honestly it isn’t that hard to not be a dick, if nobody was a dick we wouldn’t have to worry about the “bar of offense”. I just really do not understand where all your frustrations and anger is coming from. How has your life changed other than the name of ur football team? Why such ire and resentment towards people who are not happy? Why don’t you try to understand what makes them unhappy instead of just calling them sensitive sallys and assuming they are full of shit with some ulterior motive?

But the fundamental difference here is how you referenced the emotionally weak victims for the suicides and mass shooting numbers ( the latter of which id attribute to hate crimes carried out by racist fucktards) and I blame the bullys.
As if the victims are committing suicide for attention and they should just be stronger people. How about the bullys who torment them just stfu?
What if amongst us there was a crossdresser/gay person and they were offended by that meme and everyone chiming in to say what a bitch. They were so offended and it was the straw that broke their back and they ended their life? You can say extreme example but im making a point plus it happens every day more than once. Would you not think differently about a hateful meme? I know u all hate the signs that say “hate has no place here” because hate is so much fun, but it really doesn’t. Again its just not that hard not to be a dick.

[quote=EternalEnigma21;1256274][/quote]

Good post about "cancel culture" and how there will always be a group offended by something somewhere. That we as a society shouldnt conform in mass because a group of 8 people in Nebraska think a certain way.

I would hope you would agree that progress and the urge to constantly get better, get smarter, get more aware is inherent and needed. Problem becomes what one group thinks is a reasonable discussion is viewed by another as asinine and a silly "cancel culture" reaction. Who decides what is reasonable and fair to discuss?

The term "redskins" being a slur is a reasonable discussion to have amongst adults. I think we have had on this forum, for the most part, adult and reasonable discussions on the name and the name change.

The "redskins" name change is a good example of society reasonably progressing. Not all change is bad. America has come a long way since the 1700s and we still have a long way to go.

Re: In memory of our REDSKINS
 

Sports team name crying isn’t “reasonable changing” especially when that minority group majority says it’s not offensive. Having others tell someone they are a victim isn’t reasonable progress. And makes it harder for that them to succeed.


Yes this country is getting better....it’s always been...at the same time u should be recognizing the massive successes that can easily lead to beloved we are the best society in the history of the planet.

Rewriting history to what you want it to be isn’t reasonable. It’s fucking clown shit. Anybody toting it, is a clown.

People who reject data and facts because it doesn’t support extreme vague narratives isn’t progress.
