Funny how the main stream press is t reporting on this. They sure were all over it when the lower courts issued their rulings.

Yep - someone needs to tell Florio that he can call the team the Washington Redskins again & not simply Washington. That guy is such a tool.

Supreme Court delivers victory for Washington on trademark case

Florio's take - still won't use the term. He fails to mention in this article that he basically hates the REDSKINS. I have yet to see a single article or clip from this clown where he says anything remotely positive about the team (yet will rarely have anything bad to say about the Boys or other teams).

Not sure who you're including in "main stream press" but I'm seeing this pretty widely reported by the major news sites.

On Monday, the Supreme Court agreed that this use of Section 2(a) is unconstitutional. Justice Samuel Alito, who wrote the opinion, could not have made it clearer:

"We now hold that this provision violates the Free Speech Clause of the First Amendment. It offends a bedrock First Amendment principle: Speech may not be banned on the grounds that it expresses ideas that offend."

This decision could also wipe out the Redskins' decision -- effectively ending that team's need to continue its appeal. The Redskins are involved in a similar case, where they lost a long-registered trademark because the US. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia held that the "Redskins" name disparages Native Americans.

And there you have it folks sometimes the wait for the wheels of the court system to roll around takes time

A victory or setback depending on your views

Me I think the name is the Washington Redskins no more no less

folks today seem to get offended if the wind blows the wrong way

I think the court got it right on this one

Opinions will vary
