Should The Redskins Change Their Name?

Why dont we just call them the "Washington Idiots" in honor of our congress.
 

On second thought, the "Washington Weiners" has a nice ring to it...and they would still be the redskins. :)
 

I never knew anyone would be offended by the word - I thought it was to symbolize their strength and bravery if anything else. I think panic has set in after the dumb Sterling incident and they are going way too far to prove everything is ok in the sports world - geeeeeez.

Based on the current ultra-sensitivity to anything and everything we should just do away with all references to race, color, creed, nationality, gender, marital status, sexual orientation, political preference, et al.; no more Mexican, Italian, Chinese, whatever food; no more Christian, Jewish, Buddhist, whatever centers; no more male/female or whatever of the new 50+ genders specific anythings. This nonsense is probably the most divisive of any since the Viet Nam War, it's hurting the nation and turning people against each other for silly reasons based on inane arguments.

Yep. Here's how idiotic this has already become.

My grandfather was half native American (Huron.) Nothing offended him. Down here in Florida, Florida State Seminoles president (T. K. Wetherell, a friend of mine) was given an honorary head piece from the Tribe. They supported the native American riding out on the horse in full dress before the games.

I just, don't get it because if there was a team named the Pilgrims, or the White Eyes, I wouldn't be offended. Have people nothing better to do then "look" for things to be offended about.
