Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

Does anyone really ever get sushi at a gas station? Sounds like food poison city.

Sign me up for a roller dog though.

Come up with a new name for the Redskins

Well damn I missed the party. Missouri got fired up huh? Must of been having a bad day. You don’t go ballistic like that over a post. Anyway.
Im with CRed - Ill support whatever they call themselves.
There are definitely Indigenous Americans who liked the name. There are definitely those who did not.
But I am completely over it, and it is time to move on. Why? Because its the name of a fuckin sports team for God’s sake not a life or death situation.

That’s really what a lot of this boils down to. 20 years ago maybe I’d be more fired up about the name change. Now I’m like eh, ok, I’ve got bigger things to concern myself with. Life is tough enough as it is, got to go with the flow when you can and pick your battles. Some things aren’t worth the stress.

I actually know all the Native American's, don't let the fake news media trick you into thinking any of them hated the name.

Exactly and that is why the name should never have been changed. It's a fuckin' sports team - but some of these white liberals get offended by any and everything that doesn't even concern them.

Not sure how many of you follow the CFL ( our guy Brandon Banks is still playing there) but the Edmonton Eskimos dropped their name cause the crybaby ass mob thought that the name was racist. Basically what was done to Edmonton was the same thing that happened here. One of their main sponsors were going to back out if they kept the name. I mean how in the world is an Eskimo racist? WTF kind of world do we live in now? New new Edmonton Elks. What a joke.

Fuckin white liberal trash. Joking. Im
Completely white and completely liberal. At the end of the day we are all just humans man , so if there were indigenous Americans who were offended than Im happy for them. Anyway like I said - completely over it and excited for the new look - this team and organization needed a fuckin makeover anyway.

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

At the beginning of all this I think the org was genuinely caught with their pants down and clearly did not have any sort of a contingency plan in place for a name change. A two year process to rebrand a major sports franchise really isn't that unreasonable. Better to take your time and get it right. Imagine if they had immediately gone with Warriors only to continue to face backlash from NA groups.

2 years is not unreasonable AS LONG as they get it right. Not the specific name choice but the rollout, branding/logos, marketing, internet registrations, etc.

I want to believe they are being systematic, dotting their i's and crossing their t's. But how hard would it be to believe that at the end of the process, Snyder steps in and muddies the waters.

The one thing that is true is this name whatever it will be needs to be non-reactive and last the test of current politics and long time quality.

They wobble but they don't fall down.

Agreed. It came out of nowhere. And then all the sleazy revelations from the front office came out as well. Ashburn was suddenly caught in a multi-front war. Better to take their time.
