    1. The Zombie Whisperer, well it would seem they are rather needed if one doesn’t approve of being murdered.

    2. @David Eby I have Choctaw in my family tree. Racism against any people is wrong. You don’t see Caucasian people on helmets or on team Jersey stating white skins.

    3. @Cliff Dukes Redskins shouldn’t be used. I know it’s a slur. Most Native American names are used because people admire and revere and respect Native Americans. Teams,for the most part, won’t use names that don’t convey strengh,bravery or integrity.

  1. Money. Money talks. The owner and their board are as**oles; they see where the bread is buttered. THAT’S OK. 👍🏻

    Whatever it takes to make the racists move.

    1. Yes, and also combined with the horrible season where the team lost money, and the minority owner have bailed as well, Synder can’t afford to lose any more money.

  2. and this is why you should always be wary of speaking in absolutes, life is all about being able to change and adapt

  3. Gotta love how money changes ones opinions about a racist name. Loss of money forced that change. Good! Keep the momentum going!

    1. It’s bittersweet. The incentive is money as you say, when it should be the words of those affected and the decent thing to do.

  4. I mean I don’t care what a team is called. They have changed names many times over the years, SO WHAT?? If they want to change the name, they will still be the same losing team.. Ijs.. 😆 to

  5. Don’t forget, Godell just had Jay Z come and proclaim “Kneeling is done, we over that.” not too long ago.

    1. @XavierHartNine dumpster diving to describe the entire left isn’t a productive thing. but of course you watch MSNPC. logic isn’t your specialty.

    2. both of you short bus babies are clearly the stupid ones. because everybody knows racism disappears when you change sports franchise team names. lol.

    3. Adam Parisi what does anything I have said have to do with race I mean anyone can watch fox or msnbc

  6. Racists don’t care about racism, until it hits them in the wallet. That’s where you make change.

  7. As a born and raised Washingtonian, all I can say is, “Finally!” I will never support the team so long as it is owned by the evil Dan Snyder, however.

  8. “Follow the money” is the name of the game. Start publishing the names of Trump’s big donors on a weekly basis to create awareness.

  9. Now that the name is gone, they need to think about getting rid of Dan Snyder. He only agrees to change the name because he will lost money. If not for that, the name would remain.
