Keep the name. Change the logo to a potato. Problem solved.

Oh, and fire Roger Goodell.

I’m not a football fan, but if this keeps up, I may have to get a Redskins jersey.

He does this, then “blacks” becomes an insensitive term and we are going to have to get used to using “negro” again.

Due to the opprobrium and shame subsumed in the name Washington Redskins, the team will be henceforth known as the Langley Redskins.

ESPN has political prized sports. I’ve for the most part quit watching them in 2002.

When I occasionally still watch a NFL game, then I’ll turn to the NFL channel. They have better coverage, and they are not trying to politicalize the sport like ESPN.

ESPN is okay for college football, and that’s about it.

Hmmm ..?? I can’t see him risking all those fans ..??

And besides; the American Indian warrior was a symbol of strength, and a provider of meat for the tribe. Why should anybody be “offended” by such a heritage.

Don’t understand this.

Didn't I read an article where it was reported that something like 96% of Native Americans were fine with the name "Redskins" for the Washington, D.C. NFL franchise?

Team logos are almost invariably symbols intended to represent strength, integrity, etc...

The term "redskins" is not racist per se, any more than "pale face"; both are simply practical descriptive terms that identify people by their skin color. "Redskins" and "Pale Faces" is simply a slightly more slang way of sayign "Indians" and "Whites", "Native Americans" and "Caucasians", and so on...

In any event, vote Trump!

If it were my team, I’d move it out of that cesspool.
