So, is it possible they'll have to stick with REDSKINS? Oooooh Nooooooo!

Snyder could say, "Well, I tried. Darn the luck."
Probably change it to Drunken Injuns and then act shocked people think its racist

I'm smelling bullshit. The guy has a price. Just wait. The story will be that the two parties settled the matter privately.

Some of you guys are naive.

Yeah, this mf’r knew what he was doing. Smart business move and I think he wants to make sure he approves of the name.

Man shrewd. Also, he’s really putting the screws on which names he approves of?

Yikes

another quote from the guy with the names

"“The offer is still out there if they want them,” McCaulay said. “I don’t know what it takes. My first offer was you can have these for free. What do I come back with if they don’t take them? What’s my next move? Do I say I’ll pay you? I just want you to change the name. Will it help if I pay you to take these trademarks?”

Nah, I can’t see the majority wanting the split tails.

two scenarios

1.) if he's being honest, he's a total loser with too much free time on his hands
2.) he wants to get paid. a little greedy, but i can respect it

i personally think #2 is far more likely.

I cant see Washington doing the Warriors as a name. Youd think theyd want to get as far away as possible from any perception of the name still being attached to Natives.

But its Snyder so.....

Warriors it is.

Unless it the Crazyhorses

That would be fun

Too far gone to turn back now.


Merchandise sales mean a lot and a new name would generate a whole lot more...besides...many mainstream retailers have pulled 'skins gear. Fanatics is still selling it, but at some point that could end as well.

From your own article. You don’t even read the crap you post...

"I want them to change the name and am embarrassed if I did anything that slows that down," McCauley tweeted on Tuesday. "I thought if I hoarded all the good names that would keep someone else who might be a pain in the neck from getting them."

“Despite holding trademarks for a number of potential team names, McCauley said that he offered them for free in writing on July 4. However, he said that he has not been contacted by the team or the NFL.”

@steelerssb @Guy Incognito come get your man.
