They should just call themselves WASHINGTON. thats it. New logo? Big W for WASHINGTON
THIS NAME ISNT RACIST ITS ONLY WHITE LIBERALS THAT ARENT EVEN NATIVE AMERICAN IM NATIVE AMERICAN AND I DONT FIND IT RACIST NATIVE AMERICANS DONT THINK ITS RACIST
Well us Raider fans are all black Mexicans Italians and even a couple of white dudes so we get to keep our name so haha f*ckin ha.😀
What a shame that their money had to be threatened before they would change the name
Call them crooks
Washington WArriors??? Isn t that the same thing??? What about Red Man chew? This is soooooo stupid. Its just people trying to get attention. PC sucks!
I still dont see how its offensive. Doesnt it honor the Natives? Isnt tbere lots of teams names after The Natives? A politically correct world is just a sissy world. Feminism.
SO they take the name from a Native American name. Who was founded and named and the logo was designed by NATIVE AMERICANS WHO WHERE ON THE FUCKING TEAM. To a team to honor Black WW2 pilots…………I smell bullshit.
ALOT of these people need to get fucking educated. They where Native Americans ON THE FUCKING TEAM THAT NAMED THEM AND GAVE THEM THE LOGO!!! NOT RACISTS YOU IDIOTS! TAKE AWAY ALL THE NATIVE AMERICAN RESPIRATION WHY DON'T YOU?! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oSjk-0sUu5A
Too bad, Redskins symbolized strength and courage rather than the oppression. The players of all races were proud to be called a Redskin and that logo was awesome too.
Keep the logo, drop the name. If it wasn't for the tasteless name, no one would have a problem with the logo
Washington redskins go fund yourself also red skin potatoes are racist they need to change that name aswell
this is no longer football.defund the nfl…dont watch.
I like the foreskins, seeing how much they identify with pussies.
What new name,,,,,,,,,,?
They can drop the name hard-core fans are still going to call them the Redskins at the end of the day
Well we lost master bedroom to , It's offensive also. What's next white bread . Screw all liberals .
Red Hawks
I fell like Fedex, Nike etc "demanded a change" for their image and so for capitalistic reasons. Changing the name of the team will be completed as a good thing only if peoples mind are changed over capitalism.
The liberal mob thinks everything is racist
How about the liberal pussies?
All White people should SHUT UP and let all the tribes decide for themselves if the Red Skins should be removed. Most of us Natives love the team name and all. Let us vote and have a voice.
this is going too far !!!!! dumb or what about alatana braves and tons of other teams this is not racism
Only one name makes sense Washington Whiteskins I'm white and not offendedðŸ’ÂÂ😘
Good luck filling the seats with liberal snowflakes 💩💩
another black eye for the NFL
This move cancels original artwork by the Blackfoot Native who designed the team logo.
Um…oops?
How about the Washing Redrums
As an NFL fan and I play football personally I hate this
When choosing a name for a sports team we choose one that equals strength, fortitude and, honor to be represented.
I would think that most of us Indians would be honored in this choice. Who cares that it’s a color of skin. Screaming racist is getting old. We are all going to lose. What a circus this has become.
This logo means no harm. Navajo people should be proud of it. In my opinion, the logo represents the face of the true land owners. The logo represents the true people. As long as this logo itself is not used in any way, shape, type, or form, to breath death upon any human, it should stand. The people of Navajo should understand. The people of the public disagree with the logo and lack the knowledge and wisdom to understand what that logo represents. Is it money? No share for showing the face of the true land owners? Let's change too McDonald's, Wendy's, Burger King, etc.. Aunt Jemima.. what's going on? Change human history for the good. Change the name to "Navajo Indians" and keep the logo. I love, cherish, and respect all American Indians. My step grandfather is American Indian. By his father who is full blooded American Indian. I remember he took me several times with my sisters to his tribes dancing session. I had to sit on the side some because my sister's father is his son. My stepdad. If the logo goes, it goes. Would be sad though. Sad the Navajo people don't see it like that. I pay no mind how the public sees it. It's the owners personal view and right to install, or uninstall any part of his business. But only in good faith if there's a problem were the establishment is using a logo and name for bad purposes. Which in this case, it's not.💪ðŸÂ¼ðŸ™ÂÂðŸÂ¼✌ðŸÂ¼
They drop the name, people drop the NFL.
For everyone that does not understand why Washington team name is wrong because they do not know or pretend not to know American history here is a quick refresher.
The name Washington red skins and the Indian head logo came from a time when the Federal government paid bounties for scalps with red skin and black hair and or severed heads with red skin and black hair indicating the race as Native American. The bounty for killing Natives paid by the Federal government was 5 cents for an Adult and 2 cents for a child and this is the real reasin the U.S. Treasury minted Indian Head nickels and pennies. The Washington Red skin name and Indian head logo where used to indicate the location of federal bounty pay stations to present proof of murdered Native Americans. The Indian Head logo was used because a high percentage of the people murdering Native Americans for Federal bounty money could not read. The reason that Native Scalps/Red skins and severed Heads where accepted was so the settler militias could kill entire villages and not have to transport all the bodies to the nearest federal bounty payment center to collect 5 or 2 cents for every Native American they killed. Native American Children where sold into slavery/indentured servitude well into the 1960's because the militias figured out it was more profitable than killing the small children and collecting the 2 Indian head penny bounty in the 1850's.
Washington Trumps is their new name.
shut up there is nothing bad about the name
WASHINGTON SH!TSTAINS
RedLivesMatter
Good move. BTW Roger F**king Goodell, please convince the Tennessee Titans to hand over the Houston Oilers back to Houston so that the Texans can become the reborn Oilers. I mean, the New Orleans Pelicans did that in 2014 when it handed the Hornets name back to Charlotte at Michael Jordan's request. Anyone agree? '#BringTheOilersBackToHouston #LuvYaBlue
IN 2016 TRUMP DESTROYED THE GOP ESTABLISHMENT AND ABDUCTED THE GOP; he then hijacked the presidency with the backing of “his†GOP and the aid of Putin and Comey. As POTUS, Trump corrupted and enslaved all GOP representatives in Congress, except John McCain; since then the Republican Party has existed in name only! The GOP may rise from the ashes and the USA may remain a democratic nation only if Trump and his corrupt GOP renegades are strongly defeated!
Defund the NFL
whatch him come out and say "washington redskin potatoes" problem solved
How A Racial Slur Became An NFL Team https://youtu.be/AdixDnVsAbY
It’s not a racial slur. It’s about tradition. Businesses and people caving into the left wing factions. Telling us how to think and feel. NO I WON’T SUPPORT THE NFL OR ANY OTHER SPORTS. I’ll go hunting or fishing on Sunday. Or really spend quality time with family and friends. My wife likes to go antiquing, or I’ll work on my hobbies. NO MORE NFL
Dan snyder lol money is more important than your redskins name.
