Step up and prep up zipperhead.

They did a few things that were good, like create democracy in the modern world, but that doesn't count. We only count bad stuff when making decisions.
Sad thing is, though Rain is his usual clever self here, it’s not out of the picture for them to come for the Patriot name or logo if they are left unchecked.

Unrelated but funny since you brought up AZ high schools. The Yuma HS mascot is...wait for it.....The Criminals. Not a nickname given by the fan base or anything. They’re the Yuma HS Criminals. Lol.
The Washington Criminals would work...

This is gonna get real ugly. I mean real ugly and it could cascade across every league and every name someone is offended by.

I knew this was coming......

Dan Snyder is never gonna change the name, y'all are fooling yourselves. This is nothing but posturing, you are just gonna have to keep living with it.

Do the Redskins have a contract with Nike ? Does this mean that the Redskins can now make and sell their own merchandise? Does this open the door for other teams to make and sell their own merchandise? Does this open the door for Jerry Jones to own and sell their own merchandise? Jones has been trying to get out of the NFL contract for years.

Benjamin Frankenstein: we tried, really we did. The dismissed consciences were inevitable, it seems.

There is no consensus among native Americans about this shit at all, it’s just a bunch of ****ing GARBAGE... we’re becoming a nation of SPOILED PUSSIES
Lmao

Never underestimate a grown man’s commitment to a corporate mascot.

Everything's offensive.

I’ll save the woke mob some time. Well just rename each nfl team where each team will be a number between 123 and 173
Kansas City 145s sounds good.


There. Now no one is offended.

Everything's offensive. Give it time.




I believe Schefter is missing the mark here.

Oilers to Titans has nothing to do with being offended. Nashville has very little to do with oil.

Devil Rays are real things.

Ducks-well appearently Mighty was to masculine????

I take his point just to be that it's really not the end of the world to change a name. People eventually get used to it and move on.
