Sports history writers and readers of the future will have a hard time keeping up with all the name changes.

The books will be full of “footnotes” noting that the name of such and such teams until 2020 was *******s, and was changed to ***** in 2030, and again changed to ****s in 2040, and so on and so on.

The New Left has been around since 1968

This New Left is all about Deconstructing America and is on display in the open air near you. It's why the Democratic Party is so Fruity right now and so is the Media.

Wake up, smell the coffee.

She obviously knows nothing about the Comanche and their favorite forms of community outreach. :)

They came for the Redskins and the Indians. Tomorrow they will take away Texas Rangers and Dallas Cowboys.

She went to some liberal arts college and was indoctrinated (brainwashed) with Marxist/Black/Socialist ideas.

Her name rings a bell. This isn’t the only really dumb thing she’s said recently.

The New Left of 1968 were Maoists who said “kill your parents” and that includes a tract from the Black Panthers who are to this day praised by PBS.

One should ask her how many history and biography books she has read about the Texas Rangers. If none, or just one, she should apologize for being uninformed.

So aptly named, Karen is.

She needs to pray for brains.

If the Texas Rangers were cruel, they can rename the team after the Comanches, the notoriously peaceful indigenous population, the Quakers among Native American tribes.

I really should have been born centuries earlier when civilization still existed.
