Last time they were under fire.
The timing is right to take down whatever they want. When I say they, I mean the wacky twitter hit mob.

As a fan of the Skins, I am fully supportive of a name change as long as it is a package deal with an ownership change.

Lol, I’m 56 and as a young kid I pulled for the Redskins and the Cowboys. I’m not sure if anyone else has ever done that.

Maybe they could just change their logo to a potato.
Or how about an Indigenous Person from Idaho holding up a redskin potato?
(Insert sarcasm emoji here.)

This is ridiculously long overdue. Snyder has been able to beat back prior name-change efforts but he probably loses this time.

Survived this long while other more respectable Native American names have been forced to change long ago

Back in the day when I used to actually watch some NFL, a friend of mine used to call them the Washington Foreskins. I thought it was pretty appropriate.
Go Tigers!!!

Guess the Atlanta Braves are next, wonder if they will go back after the FSU Seminoles?

Let’s cancel it all. I’m part Irish and terribly offended by the ND mascot. I replied to a post a while back saying the Statue of Liberty and Mount Rushmore would have to go. Got a “ha ha ha” reply. Whelp? But seriously, the Redskins nickname is on a different level than Braves and Seminoles.

Once again, white liberals telling Native Americans what they should be offended by. Hey, why not? They (white liberals) have already hijacked BLM.
