Shouldn't be hard to let it go then.

Certainly you can understand that while it means nothing to you, it relates to something important to others.

Eh, my lifetime still has 50 years in it, theoretically. Longer than Snyder. It wouldn't shock me in the slightest if the name changes before then. Or the League could fold.



Mine too. But the team will be handed off to family or sold with contingencies.

Want to know why else it won't be changed? Their stadium sells out every weekend.

Another cool name would be the Commanders. Generals would be great except that it's already been used. Americans would be OK, too.


Well since we are on the topic of being retarded....

Washington mother fricking tomahawkmissiles...

How can it be racist and dishonest , when for some reason, the name suddenly became racist? They have been the Redskins for a long time. But only now it's considered racist and has to change? What kind of shite is that?

I say in all of these threads, change the logo to a potato and change nothing else. Controversy dies.

You do realize the name redskins was to honor the current head coach. He just so happened to be a Native American.

And on top of that, you want to replace the American Indian warrior with the white man warrior when you want to change to the "Blue coats".

Which was clearly his point. And like it.

Let's be racists against our own!

You contradict yourself with this false narrative.

Great episode


I loved how much they plastered the logo all over the place just because they legally could, which was the point of course.

Wouldn't be a bad nickname.

I think they should move the team to Los Angeles so they don't insult Native Americans by associating them with DC. The new team can be the Hogs in honor of one of the old team's great traditions.

Yes, they should bow down this much and actually move the fricking team?

You PC idiots are ruining this country.

It's Rex, go figure.
I hate this shite, leave them alone.

Will the NFL THEN force the Blue Coats Drum and Bugle Corps to change because they infringe on the NFL franchise? or pay them for their name?

"Great" is not the word I would use to describe "Washington Bluecoats."

"Lame", "stupid", or "gay" is more like it.
