Indeed—Find a city that appreciates the huge economic boost an NFL team provides.

Mayors of most NFL cities live in perpetual dread that the team will decide to re-locate—It would be something if the ‘skins move out on Obama’s watch.

In which State do more NFL teams play their home games: Maryland or New York?

MD, of course!

Has Redman chewing tobacco taken any flak over their name and logo?

Not hat I've heard, but St. John's University Redmen have wimped out to become the Red Storm.

Translation= Liberals don't like the name so the entire nation doesn't like the name. Do as we say, not as we do. Our way or the highway.

I've said for years that political correctness will be one of the factors in the downfall of our nation. It is nothing more than cultural Marxist used by the Left to silence and bully the opposition.

If a conservative doesn't agree with something, they just don't watch it, read it or participate it anymore and move on.

If a liberal doesn't agree with something, the entire nation is not allowed to watch it, read it or participate in it and they demand that "it" be destroyed.

The Redskins should just STAY in Maryland; tell DC to fugoff.

After looking at that image the name Washington Mulattos comes to mind.

If I owned the team I’d move it to Oklahoma City.

I’m not a football fan. In fact, living near Baltimore, Sunday afternoons are a great day to shop cause the stores are empty.

If I ever were to purchase a team logo shirt, you can sure bet it will be the Redskins.

Oklahoma is next. They’ll force the city to change its name because OKLAHOMA actually means RED PEOPLE.

Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-D.C.) said that after the Patent Office and federal court rulings, “I hope that [owner] Dan Snyder gets on with his real business of getting the team back in winning form and selecting a new mascot.”

If you want to see what an 80 year old lesbo looks like....One that was beaten early and often with an ugly stick. Go google up her photos.

What's with the shaved hair?


Is this deliberate, or is she on chemotherapy?

She has looked like this for 40 years since she was a hack in NY City. When DC was given two shadow Senators she carpetbagged her way down there to score the US Senator job. She has always been a nasty piece of work

She makes Algonquin J. Calhoun look like Perry Mason.

ROTFLMAO.
Amos 'n' Andy was great comedy.
Eleanor Holmes Norton attempting to park a car is Lightnin'-esque.
If they ever do a remake ....

Lightnin’! What a great character.

I don’t think that show was any more demeaning to blacks than white TV sitcoms were to whites. E.g., Lightnin’ wasn’t any worse than Maynard G. Krebs. The characters were actually lovable with their human foibles.

I heartily agree.
Thankfully the DVDs are available and last I looked I've got all that are available.
My favorite TV comedy series, and the radio shows were great, too.
