The owner decides who the GM and coach are.  OBD made mistakes, corrected and now our franchise is looked at different 

 

 

I think I just said that.

When I bought my house 28 years ago I found a Washington jersey left behind (apparently it was used as a rag) which I used on my scarecrow for several years.  I started using it on Halloween on a dummy I hanged from a tree which I used to scare kids controlling it.  A few years after $nyder bought team I looked for a Dan $nyder mask for it and could not. One store said they carried it but it sells out as fast as they were displayed.  Had one person stop with Redsuck plates and stadium reserved parking sticker and I was told to stop doing this or I'd be sued.  I told him it was a classic original player jersey and if he wanted it he'd have to make me a 4 figure offer.  He never showed up again and did not buy it.

True, there are Native Americans who don’t take offense to the name, but there are also many who consider it derogatory.

I think this is one of those situations where most of them are okay with it but the ones who aren't are more louder and vocal.

WFT was still the best - should have just kept that

Like I’ve consistently said from the beginning on this topic. Deleting these proud societies that’ve earned the respect of their adversaries from our collective consciousness does not help them.

 

non-NA’s trying to impress other non-NA’s about how good they are, patting each other on the back, mindless of the destruction they leave in their wake.

Who are they and what standing do they hold in the community? 
 

without context it’s akin to citing a single random tweet as newsworthy content

WTF would be more appropriate.

The Chicago hockey team must know something no one else does.

 

Even Lancaster bought into this stuff...

You can't see the difference between "REDSKIN" and "BLACKHAWK?"

 

The issue isn't ANY reference to native Americans....the issue is with derogatory equivalents of the "N" word with regard to native Americans.

 

Anyhoo, if the native Americans can group together and make peace with the new ownership, that would be great.

 

I personally don't think anyone at the football team ever meant to insult native Americans.

1. They don't have a website

2. One of their leaders is a guy who wrote a book he is trying to sell called How the Redskins Got Their Name - http://www.redskinsname.com/

3. The acronym for this group is... how do I say... pretty damn close to the acronym for another group

 

Pretty fishy but the people will argue without researching.
