Why is MAGA okay with our President weighing in on this topic? Shouldn’t he be focused elsewhere? I thought we’d have 90 trade deals in 90 days!

It’s incredible that MAGA is okay with a president threatening to step in on an NFL stadium consideration due to a legacy name that was widely considered derogatory. What happened to not wanting government overreach? Does that only apply when it fits your world view? Pathetic.

Absolutely bring back the Washington Redskins. Should have never been changed to begin with
you just posted "Jesus is Lord" in another thread.

Do you honestly think Jesus would like white people giving a sports team what is a clear racial slur as its name? I appreciate your football takes but some of the contradictions you guys throw out are wild.

Yes Jesus is Lord. Do you know the story of Blackfeet Chief John Two Guns White Calf?

The Redskins name and logo is a great source of pride for his family and his people. His face is the Redskins logo

The name is a source of pride...for them..but white liberals are MOSTLY the offended ones..would you agree?

How about you go find some Indians and call them redskins to their faces and see if they like it, then we'll know.

I imagine we would catch each others first names and end up laughing at how sensitive white liberals are
Not sure what that means but my point had nothing to do with being sensitive myself. If the average Indian doesn't mind being called a slur, I say feel free to change the name. I don't have a dog in this fight.

imagine posting Jesus is Lord and then your default position is to be mad that you can't use a blatant slur for a sports team. MAGA has really done a number on the concept of Christianity.

Who is your God ?
Grew up southern baptist but furthest I go with God now is the concept of God the Watchmaker. Maybe there is some kind of divine creator responsible for this multiverse, but I don’t believe in anything close to Republican Jesus.

Only the liberal soy boys think Redskins is a racial slur.

Explain how it isn't a racial slur?

Oh I forgot, you're a little ***** who doesn't pay bets and blocked me because you didn't like feeling stupid all the time...

Yes, doing what he was elected to do. Hide files, pardon criminals, and change teams names. He needs a DOGE for his time management
Actually the two biggest issues in the election were
1) Inflation / Economy
2) Immigration

He has more than fulfilled his campaign promises on those issues and his voters are very happy. Anything like team name changes are what we like to call "to boot"

And "entertainment" . KInda like using a laser pointer and a toy with catinp on a string to make your cat crazy. It takes hardly any effort at all and you can enjoy the action while concentrating on other things.

Too bad he didn't just run on "two big issues" but on a multitude of issues. Like releasing the Epstein list (which he admitted he was found all over LOL).

Democrats had the chance to release it. I bet they wish they had a leader that wasn't totally inept.
Can you point me to any mentions by Biden during his campaign? Because we can all give you a million examples of Trump and the MAGA machine making it one of the foundations of Trump's campaigns.

Seriously, man...are you just this stupid? You honestly don't have the brainpower to understand why it's different when one party gins up conspiracy theories left and right as a part of its identity and the other party doesn't? Are you really too stupid to understand why nobody cares that the Dems didn't release the files since they weren't the ones frothing at the mouth over it the last ten years compared to your inbred MAGA morons?

Let me help you out here, man...If person A spends all their time talking about something and then does nothing about it when given the opportunity...people are going to respond to that differently than if person B who never mentioned it in the first place doesn't make it a priority.

It's easy to see how Fox News gets over on people when you view the stupidity on display in this forum.

How about explain why it's a racial slur? I know you are having a bad day with the Olympic transgender news but cut the bs.
Racist? No way. I’m hoping we can get the white Sox changed to white skins and the raiders could take the black skins.

Thanks for that bit of history concerning John Two Guns White Calf. The name is unusual and somewhat descriptive, so my initial thought was that it might be a lead in to a joke alone the lines of the old "Two dogs phucking" joke. But Google revealed that Two Guns White Calf was, in fact, a Blackfoot chief, and in fact the apparent last of the Blackfoot chiefs.

I would have no problem restoring the logo, but you have to admit that the name "Redskins" is somewhat pejorative. I have much less issue with
"Indians" or "Braves" than I do with Redskins. I also have no issue with "Squaw Valley," the Lake Tahoe ski resort recently renamed "Palisades Tahoe." But this wasn't my call.

I think FSU did it the right way. They asked the Seminole nation for their take on the FSU mascot name and logo, and the Seminoles did not object to it. If the Seminoles had no issue, it made it a little tougher for anyone else to claim that the use of their name and logo was somehow disrespectful. Note that, unlike "Redskins," the term "Seminoles" has no obvious pejorative connotation.

Agree. But politics originally changed the name, so let’s change it back.


“Political Figures: In 2013, President Barack Obama commented that if he were the team owner and the name offended a sizable group, he would consider changing it. In 2014, 50 U.S. Senators, led by Maria Cantwell and Tom Cole, signed a letter urging the NFL to support a name change. D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser in 2020 stated the team needed to change its name”
Bring back the "HOGS".

Damn, those were the good ole times. John Riggins.
