“I know that our site, we’ve talked about it, and we’re not going to use Redskins in our writing,” Klemko said on CBS Sports Radio’s MoJo with Chris Moore and Brian Jones.

"We’re going to say ‘Washington football team,’” Klemko added. “And it’s not something we’re going to publicize or write about. We’re just not going to do it.”


Just heard about this today. I know this topic has been discussed ad nauseum. Does the fact that a prominent member of the football media is refusing to acknowledge the Redskins name mean a wider spread media protest? I can imagine it's only a matter of time before ESPN and other TV networks follow suit.

Peter King has always been an idiot. If he wants to be a self righteous idiot, that's fine with me.

I actually read about it before that, but they definitely did cover it on their afternoon lineup of shows

I just hope Snyder doesn't bend to the pressure and rename the team the Washington Smallpox.

I was listening to Cowboys game broadcast on my way in to Dallas last night. They interviewed a beat writer for Washington and he said nobody in their blog would do it. "We're not going to broadcast it, we're not going to make it a big deal, we just aren't going to do it"

Yet there he is telling Cowboys fans on the radio that he wasn't going to do it. They are going to call them "Washington's football team"

Stupid.

Good way for the Redskins to stop endorsing your blog/newspaper/anything.
