Re: Skins getting heat again over name issue

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

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

Re: Skins getting heat again over name issue

Redhawks, Tails , are garbage names!

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

They were originally the Boston Braves so going back to Braves is a lesser evil. Redtails/Warriors is forcing it....But keep Redskins and tell FedEX to piss off

It’s not going to be anything Native American related. The Indians, Braves, Chiefs and Blackhawks are all next on the chopping block.

Redskins isn’t derogatory...if it was, been generations ago.

From what I’m told, words and symbols change...redskins means only the professional football team in Washington DC...nothing derogatory at all.
