Apparently, they're just going to call them Washington now. Thank goodness there's no other football team that the times covers called Washington, right?

What a bunch of dumbfucks

I like to pretend I'm outraged about the Redskins changing their name.

" In the only recent poll to ask native people about the subject, 90 percent of respondents did not consider the term offensive, although many question the cultural credentials of the respondents."

I heard a clip from an interview with the ST Sports Editor this morning. He started saying, "The R Word..." He needs to drown in a tsunami.

How newspapers may use the word "Redskin":



Why would Native Americans be upset with the term?

I just skimmed the article, but it seems like they didn't get the results they wanted so they decided that the cultural credentials weren't legit.

That's exactly what it is. "What you aren't OUTRAGED?!?!? Hmmm are you REALLY Native American then??"

I'm as anti-pussification as anyone but I still don't understand why Washington Redskins is cool but Washington Niggers is not.

No. I'm saying the NFL and Daniel Snyder should have the basic human decency to change the name.

It shouldn't take AN OUTRAGE to make it happen.

I'm not sure that changing the name to Washington Niggers is going to help.

If they can do this to the Redskins, they can do it to anyone they disagree with, to anything they deem politically incorrect. Hope that fucking helps.

Little Jimmy is right time to run Boobs. He NEVER contributes to a thread ever.

Can we get back to talking some X's and O's?

I'm quite sure the ACLU, and every other cock gobbling liberal faggot organization and individual, attaches way more significance to the 10% of offended Native Americans (aka "Indians") than the deluded 90% who are obviously too stupid to know they should be offended...
