My mind went there as well…immediately.

I really don’t think this is a big deal

But I will punch people in the face when I hear comments like “long overdue” or “as it should have always been”

I won’t stand for that from supposed redskins fans…if you were ever offended by it then how did you become a fan in the first place? Gtfo, we don’t want you or need you. Go root for the Cowboys you sensitive bitch

Some of our local or once local journalists are the worst (I am talking to you Wilbon!. Milloy!).

The latter wrote a column and started it by saying he had been to dozens of Redskins games, often as a guest in the owner's box. He cheered and whooped it up with the best of them. But now he realized how incredibly cruel the name is!

Seems to me if it was ever that egregious, he would not have been a fan at in the first place.

The Redskins were Native America's team (They were by far the most popular team in that community according to the WPs polling). And fools like these took it away from them. They say they listened to the NA community - nothing could be farther from the truth (91% ignored).

It’s because evidently Anyone who ever loved the redskins (millions of fans worldwide of every Race , creed etc) really did not know we were all Racist at heart … 🙄… it took a very small group of Woke individuals to wake the rest of us up … hmmmm ..that is what they would like us to believe .. I ain’t buying ! Truth is it’s a movement that for now they are winning and as we saw with Cleveland other teams will cave .. what Nobody has yet to tell me is this … Is using the word Indian wrong ?? Yes or no is the word Indian a slur? Maybe the dictionary needs to be updated and a lot of words need to be banned … let’s just ban and tear down and sweep under the rug anything that somebody else could deem offensive.. it’s over and I’m cool with new name whatever but if you think this really changed anything ..there is a long list of teams now who need to change their name, look , image … even names of cities, towns counties need to be looked at .. even people’s names need to be looked at .. and to think that just about everyone that is a member of this forum for years held the redskins close to heart and finally woke up 😳.. is the word Indian a slur ?

I’ll try to find the article….but UW Madison took a huge black rock off campus because someone complained because they heard a rumor that 175 years ago a few people called it n*** rock and they were offended. So rocks are racist too and cause people emotional harm. 🤦*♂️
