FedEx asks Redskins to change name
 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">JUST IN: <a href="https://twitter.com/FedEx?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@FedEx</a> has asked the Washington <a href="https://twitter.com/Redskins?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Redskins</a> to change its name. Here is the statement:<br><br>“We have communicated to the team in Washington our request that they change the team name.“</p>&mdash; ABC 7 News - WJLA (@ABC7News) <a href="https://twitter.com/ABC7News/status/1278807283284180992?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 2, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Here we go. I think part of the reason we’ve been safe from this kind of stuff is because the Redskins have always been a bigger target. Now that there’s pressure from sponsors Snyder is going to feel the heat like never before.

If they go down, make no mistake, the mob will come for us next.

Haha.

FedEx, really?

Let's be honest - it's hard to defend the name "Redskins."

When the Braves and Indians start getting targeted, I'll start getting worried.

Yea. You know. The company who owns the naming rights for where that team plays.

Could just change it to The Washington Red.

If GEHA asks us to change ours, I would respond with, "Gay! Ha!"

Trojan should sponsor the Gamecocks. "Trojan - We cover the Cocks!"

Since I don't live in the area, I don't even know who GEHA is. Do they pronounce it "Gay-Ha" or "Gee Eee Ach Ay"?

When will "Major League" get removed from Netflix?

For some reason I didn’t make the connection. Thank you.
