I hope the owner of the team holds firm, just for once in my life I would love to see the political correctness brigade LOSE. Unfortunately I figure it will be a death by a thousand cuts and at some point the owner will just say “screw it, change the name” to shut them up...

Wow! I’m a lifelong Cowboys fan but I might just have to become a Redskins fan too. And that hurts.

I like the sound of the San Antonio Redskins.

I hope the owner moves the team so that the tribes do not have to bear the shame of being associated with Washington PC.

What's next, banning the Canucks and Yankees as ethnic slurs?

This whole name thing was just a minor tempest in a teapot until Obama decided to run his mouth on the issue. Now all his mindless drones (most of which couldn't have cared less about the team name before) have now jumped on board the name change bandwagon in response to Dear Leaders marching orders...

Best case scenario — diehard ticket buyers give the PC crowd a big FU

What's next, banning the Canucks and Yankees as ethnic slurs? How about the "Fighting Irish"? After all they were named after the Irish immigrant communities penchant to drink a bit too much and brawl in the streets.

This Country has a serious 1st Amendment problem.
This PC hatred and bullying are quite Hitleresque.

I have no affinity for the DC Redskins other than they were once from Boston. However, I’m with Snyder 100%. I think he’s tough enough to say pound sand, forever, if need be. I know the Redskins have enough brand equity to withstand the limp wristed Bob Costas and dopey journo’s that don’t know a false start from offside. It’s important for the political and speech rights of the rest of us that Snyder does NOT say uncle.
To: Berlin_Freeper
I don’t blame them. The ‘skins are terrible this year.

Also add the Padres, because that endorses Christianity.

Dan Snyder should play the video clip of the Obamessiah’s remarks on the Redskins on the stadium jumbotron.
Then he should play a clip of Obama’s fundraising lackey and Oneida “representative” Ray Halbritter, with text overlays explaining the relationship between Halbritter, Obama, Oneida, and the anti-Redskin game.
Then, he should light up the jumbotrong with a two-part cheer:
Barack Obama | FU!
Barack Obama | FU!
We are the Redskins | FU!

As does the St. Louis Cardinals. Christianity. Roman Catholic Christianity.

Stand up to these crisis du jour idiots. They’ll give up, like the fools that protested at Augusta National over the The Masters.
