Dan Snyder ought to tell him: “OK, we’ll change the name if you’ll blow your head off.”

“If I were the owner of the team and I knew that the name of my team, even if they’ve had a storied history, that was offending a sizable group of people, I’d think about changing it,”

When I read that what I heard was, “That’s a nice looking football team you have there.”

That sends chills down my spine

Mr.O, if you were a genuine American President,( I mean the real thing, not just a poor actor on a guarded stage) you would know that nobody gives a Hopper’s Hoot about your sport world speculations.

I believe you already have a job, last time I checked. You have a job, which remains largely (blatantly) undone, save for the protective propaganda. Aren’t there some organic vegetable seedlings you were supposed to dig a hole for this weekend? It’s not ready yet? The Mrs. won’t be pleased if there’s no place to put her onions! If you know what I mean.

I think The United Negro College Fund should change its name too

Also the NAACP - National Association for the Advancement of Colored People

And also The National Council of Negro Women (NCNW)

If Zero was the owner of the Skins, they would be 0-16 and he would blame the other NFL teams for not playing fair. Of course I am assuming as the owner he could keep the team out of bankruptcy long enough to finish a season. An unlikely scenario.

“If I were the owner of the team and I knew that the name of my team, even if they’ve had a storied history, that was offending a sizable group of people, I’d think about changing it,” Obama said.”

A lie within a lie. If he knew it was pissing people off
he knows he wouldn’t change it and second there is not
a “sizable group of people” who are offended.

The two bit punk is a baldfaced jug eared liar. Two of the
dominate traits a a most worthless human being.

I’m sure he would like the name changed to something like the Washington Dictators...

How about the Half Blackskins, or maybe the Mulattoes?

Snyder simply need to tell Obama to clean up the nickname issue in Chicago first and then they can talk.

Chicago is not going to give up the Blackhawks.

Lol

Washington AC/DC

I think the band AC/DC would be offended. The singer, Brian Johnson and the band's bassist are loyal listeners to Rush Limbaugh. The bassist Cliff Williams has called into the show on occasions.

He would probably name it the Black Panthers.

Good God. What a tool. With everything going on, and his golf on top, how does he find the time to comment on a completely inane issue that has no serious bearing on anything?

It boggles the mind.
