Filthy shabbos goy.

He doesn't look like an octroon. I smell deception. $5 says that it was actually North African, but they fudged it for shock value and publicity.

Honestly I don't even know what's going on. I've been deep in the k-hole for like 68 of the past 72 hours.

keepthefaith made one fatal mistake: he forgot who the judge was. Good luck in your re-try at round one, pal.

4merper4mer is right, you're swinging alright. Swinging and missing. The name "redskin" has nothing to do with scalping. Red became a color label in the 19th century, like black and white. Would you be offended if they changed their name to the Washington Whiteskins and made some honkey their mascot? I think not. Pressure isn't likely to come from Native Americans not because of their small population (they have a loud voice regardless of their population size) but because they don't care. Neither should we. This has happened before, many times. And it blows over every time. This is no different. The liberal media and their ilk (read: you) will get back to wetting their pants over Vlad Putin any day now. You're reaching so far up your ass for this stuff that you can bite your fingernails. Liability carrier? Really? Liability for what? As far as courts go, this issue has been shot down so many times it thinks it's Black Kettle. Non-issue. What do I think the conversation on this is? I don't care. And neither does Dan Snyder. Most NFL owners aren't as delicate as you seem to be. Obama weighed in because he was asked directly. And civil rights groups have been at this for years, making no progress except to make a little bit of a stink every year. Again, who cares? And public opinion is still firmly on Snyder's side, with 70% of Americans believing that the name should not be changed. And if Snyder doesn't keep fighting he could lose millions in merchandise sales that he's already made. If they lose the federal trademark on the name in a lawsuit, Snyder and the franchise will get screwed faster than trailer trash on prom night. Not caving on the name actually helps him in the legal battle and on the merchandise sales he's already made, not just on some future merchandise sales that you've conjured up in your mind. This legal battle over the trademark continues even after your fairy tale of creating documentaries and **** based on the name. No, I've put him in a situation where he's completely in control of the matter, can fight from a position of strength on the trademark battle, and where he doesn't look like a pansy who grabbed his ankles for the sake of the liberal media. You've put him in a position where he looks like a pliable panty waist because, according to you, the media and the public are already in front on this. If he takes your advice, he'll look like a pile of putty limping in with a compromise to try and save face. He will never be forced to change the name. Precedent is on his side, he just needs to fight a little longer. And, evidently, you're the guy with soft arms, a hard head, and a limp dick. Levi is the tribe of priests and teachers, and I've been taking your ass back to school for this entire debate.

You may as well be arguing that I change the name of my beloved Buffalo Bills for the sake of some cash and making the liberal media happy with me. For shame, man! Keepthefaith has made his positions very clear on the matter. Tradition means nothing. Fanhood means nothing. I can't help but wonder if these positions extend to his favorite team as well.

I was hoping for Washington Wetbacks and Columbus Christ Killers myself. Where do we sign up? Those are awesome names. This entire point is invalid since the only values that Natives had after the 1600's were firewater and smallpox. As I have already pointed out, Natives are not the primary hell-raisers with regard to the name change. Setting aside the obvious point that Native Americans probably deserve to be reminded of their losses, keepthefaith would apparently have the only NFL team that honors a once proud and populous people entirely abandon their homage in favor of something more "politically correct." Should the Minnesota Vikings also change their name, having a sub-.500 record since 2000, since they somehow no longer represent Scandinavians well? Preposterous. Couple of points here. First, the idea of changing the name of the franchise (and moving them!) in order to preserve the heritage of the franchise sounds really great. Ask any SuperSonics fan. Second, while an influx of revenue is virtually guaranteed with a name change, the bottom line isn't the only thing that Dan Snyder is concerned about. My opponent forgets one key fact: Dan Snyder has been a passionate Redskins fan his whole life. The man bleeds burgundy and gold like any of us Bills fans bleed red and blue, and no amount of money will ever change that. I will largely ignore the irony in the fact that someone who goes by "keepthefaith" has no idea what the origin of the name "Levi" is. I think it's pretty clear that there are several reasons to not change the name. And it appears that the only legitimate reason to change it is to get more money. The allure of such monetary gain quickly disappears for a man who, already being a billionaire, is attached and committed to his team and its timeless name and mascot through almost half a century of being a fan. Don't change the name, Dan. You'll regret it forever if you do.

I have prepared several points to open. 1. Anyone who is arguing that the name should be changed is just a hand-wringing pansy. Most of the people who say the name should be changed aren't even Natives. They're either libs (see: hand-wringing pansy) or people who say that they're 1/16 Cherokee (we all know what that means). 2. I've never seen anybody prove that a significant portion of the Native population finds the name offensive (one study found that a whopping 90% of Natives don't find it offensive). And even if they did, who cares? 3. The term "redskin" isn't even a racial slur. They don't even look red. I'm pretty sure it refers to their war paint (probably their enemies' blood smeared on their faces) and how they are fierce warriors. Really, it's a compliment. 4. The name is backed by 80 years of fan tradition. Imagine if 10% of the guys named William in the US decided that the Buffalo "Bills" name is offensive and a stupid campaign started to change the name of our beloved team. We'd be outraged and would find the notion preposterous. While I don't have a lot of sympathy for Redskins fans on principle, we can at least empathize with them on this point. 5. The Redskins are a privately owned team. Dan Snyder can call them whatever the hell he wants. They still make tons of money. 6. I need a point that the hand-wringing pansies can appreciate, so here it is: this "campaign" and the media coverage it gets only serves as a distraction from real issues that Native Americans face, such as tribal disenrollment.

I'll argue that they should not change their name. If keepthefaith is part featherhead this should be interesting.

Yep. Best-case scenario: they're annoying. Worst-case scenario: they're extremely dangerous.

Should be interesting to see a lot of the guys here argue the opposite of what they believe.

The best part? This guy has thrown parties for these very same kids several times before. And these morons go and trash the house.

"Overly skinny?" You must be joking. The store sells pants up to size 14, which I think is on the lower end of "plus size." Unless she has no self-awareness whatsoever, I severely doubt that she felt no shame walking into a store that had no articles of clothing that fit her (I'm not counting accessories/jewelry/perfume/flip-flops). If I was fat to the point where some stores were not options as far as clothing because all the articles of clothing in them were too small, I'd be ashamed. And I'm a grown-ass man. I'd find what little self-respect I had left and use it to get myself on a weight loss plan immediately. But hey, maybe you and I are different. This idea that being fat in and of itself isn't or shouldn't be shameful is a poisonous line of thinking.

Is missing the point an occupation for you or more of a hobby?

BMI is only useful for a very small subset of the population. The young, the old, and the athletic are huge swaths of the population that can't rely on BMI to figure out their healthy weight. This girl is fat. And she has no business being fat. But she's what, 14? Don't treat a 14 year old girl like **** because of her size. Wait until she's 18. At 14, the fact that the store has no clothes that will fit her is more than enough to shame her for her size.

Man, !@#$ your thread tags.

Saw Styx a couple of years ago when they were touring with Boston. Put on a great show, though I think there are fewer original members of Boston than Styx around at this point (RIP Brad Delp). "Kilroy Was Here" was an awful album and deserves ridicule, but nothing Styx ever did comes close to "We Built This City" as far as pure suckitude goes.

Hey, as long as it works.

Just hit your damn kid. It's really not that hard.

Because they're dicks. I'm sure you already arrived at that conclusion, but just didn't want to say it. They have nothing to gain by it except blowing up their own egos by thinking, "hey, if that God does exist (which he totally doesn't), IN HIS FACE!" In the Christian worldview, they have been deceived to the point where they feel the need to blaspheme a God they don't even believe is there in order to attempt to deceive others. They are wolves who don't even bother to get dressed in the sheep's clothing in the morning. And I've never seen these videos. What exactly do they say? I find it hard to believe that an atheist can honestly commit blasphemy of the Holy Spirit which, if I understand it correctly, refers to attributing the miraculous works of Christ (or the Holy Spirit) to the demonic.

That is Not Funny. And yes, Not Funny is a proper noun.

It took me a solid 75 minutes to really start liking that movie.

This paragraph is pure gold. Summertime...and the livin's easy.
