FedEx asks Redskins to change name
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. |

I have inside information on the new nickname! I ran into a diehard Redskins fan friend of mine at Best Buy, and he said he was told by a source within the organization that they will NOT be the Washington Wallaby****ers. Couldn't rule out Redwallaby****ers quite yet, though.

What if they just renamed the team after a SINGLE, badass, historic Native American?
Like, what if the descendants of Red Cloud and the Lakota were like, "Wow, that's a great honor!" The Washington Red Clouds. They don't even have to change the logo, really. |

That would be cool. But the SJW beta cacks would still start crying and throwing a fit again.

It's no different than naming a team after Joe Louis, in the case of the Browns. Most people don't realize that, but it's the case. (at least Paul Brown himself said so. The team later backtracked this publicly as the name was based on his skin color and nickname, "The Brown Bomber") Naming a team after a person for their bravery, legend, honor, etc. is very different than naming your team after an entire people. |

People are calling for the Vikings to rename the team based on the fact that the real, actual, Norse Vikings burned and pillaged the whole of Europe a thousand years ago. It's insane. COVID needs to end so some of these folks can set their manufactured outrage aside and go back to their jobs at the Hot Yoga Studio. |
