gonna destroy the team and lose all the fans and you can make arguments for multiple other teams needing to change their names also
Cleveland Browns - so is there nothing but Brown people living in Cleveland
Dallas Cowboys - Cowboys killed thousands of Native Americans
Minnesota Vikings - Pillaged and plundered and killed thousands of people and raped women
Kansas City Chiefs - Offensive to Native Americans
Greenbay Packers - Offensive to the Gay Male Community

 

[RememberTheKoy]

So stupid.

Good buy to one of the best logos and helmets in sports.

 

[Fountain City Blues]

Just call them tRazorbacks or the like. The animal is already in team culture and flows fine.

The Generals lose less games than the Skins do, IIRC.

Skins gotta go. Your team sucks anyway, so no one will notice the name change for at least a few years.

Listen snowflake, your teams tomahawk chop needs to go then.

I agree. I don't like the chop... but be sure to get FSU's out too.

 

[Rowdy]

In the end a name change would be very beneficial only because they wouldn’t get so much negative press, like a fool who rates Haskins below qbs that haven’t even played a single nfl game, and ones who can’t even win the starting position on their own teams. Probably even get a lot more calls from the refs in their favor.

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

This is not a surprise at all. It's been brewing for a long time.

 

[Rowdy]

I do agree the name is offensive, it should be West Virginia Redskins.

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

I'm pretty sure about 90% of the people who think the name is fine have no idea what it really means. But hey, whateva.

none of these teams have a group of people saying these names are offensive, but maybe you've enlighten some with regards to the packers....lol

also.... I'm sad to see this happen but sponsors have all the power here....just a matter of time

It means the football team who plays in Washington. If I told you I ran into a couple of redskins yesterday, what would you think? Haskins, Kerrigan?
