But, the liberals have decided that we are supposed to be offended by Indian nicknames. The liberals have decided that Redskins is offensive.

It doesn’t matter if real Indians are offended or not. Liberals have decided we SHOULD BE offended, so they have decided to push this issue again and again.

And the liberal media, including some sportscasters as Bob Costas, have jumped on this band wagon, and are pushing this. If you thought sports were somewhere you could catch a break from liberalism, you are mistaken.

Well, it all lands in the lap of the owners of the Redskins’ franchise.

It might help the owners, if a lot of people start sending them emails and letters, etc. letting them know you don’t want the name changed.

If the owners cave to the Costas’ opinion, there probably isn’t much you can do .. except not attend the games, or start a boycott of the games. Or, start a boycott of advertisers of the games.

I guess it all boils down to the will of the public .. how upset are they over a name change .. and are they willing to put their money where their mouth is.

And .. who hired the “Design” company .. the owners ..?? Or the people who are raising a stink about the name ..?? If this Design company just appointed themselves .. in support of the left’s position .. it’s probably time to find out who runs the Design company and/or who on the left is supporting that company.
