Yeah. I wish the NFL would not let NBC have prime time redskins games until they agree to not allow Costas to do that.

Interesting article about the economics of changing the name (or more like the economic difficulties of a possible change):

Re: Redskins Trademark cancelled

He who shall not be named has spoken on the issue of the name, and I unfortunately think he makes a solid point.

I agree that he makes some solid points, but I don't think any of this comes as that big of a shocker. Not to say that I think Snyder would sell out the team name, but I could definitely see him giving in to all the pressure (real or conceived) if and only if he gets some major concessions from the NFL/DC government/etc.

Yeah, I'm sure Snyder has his price. It would be very hard for him to say no to a new stadium and the Superbowl, IMO.

Also, FU Cerrato.

Did Cerrato really provide any new insight? And no, I wouldn't trust any judgement call that ole "sacks n stuff" has to say. He's just trying to say things to get airtime, now. imo.

Re: Redskins Trademark cancelled

Blogger hired to defend Redskins name resigns - The Washington Post

I love the sentence in this article that says, "Redskins owner Dan Snyder has vowed not to change the name but is facing unprecedented opposition from those who consider it a racial slur."

What it should have said is that Snyder is facing unprececedented opposition from the "smallest of minorities of people in the country" who consider it a racial slur. But "unprececedented opposition" sounds more powerful.

The propaganda on this just continues to be amazing to me.

He probably got pressure from his liberal buddies. Craziness!

I hope Snyder doesn't cave. Fight it to the end.
