While the word Redskins can be meant in it's negative context, one can't argue that it can also be seen in it's positive form. In the context of this thread most people choose to see the negative in it. I assume most of the US population does. As stated numerous times the N-word is also often used in a positive context. Usually, but not always, within a specific race. Who knows what they were thinking when they chose the name? It may be correctly documented somewhere. However I do not think that when the name was chosen it was meant in a negative context. Most sports teams choose a name that depicts strength and they would like their team to be percived from this standpoint. If one chooses to place a derogatory meaning to the name that was their choice, not the intended vision. Almost anything can appear to be inflammatory in some sense if you allow yourself to go there. I do not think that was the intended vision of the team when the name was chosen and I think it should be taken as it was intended. Even if you do not agree you must be able to see where it could be taken as a positive image of the American Indian. To turn that into a negative is the personal choice of those who percive it that way. I think Washington's logo is professional and I do not believe I have seen the team show it in the negative way it has been portrayed here.

Nice! Can we do this ^^^

My concern is our own "Up tempo" or " No huttle" . Three and outs late in the game will be a killer.

He wasn't being honest he was sucking up to the Pittsburgh media and fans while trying out for the team. Just trying to get fans on his side. No NFL player is happy missing the playoffs and 8-8 steams more than 2-14. If this is true why didn't he voice his opinion while it was occurring? Why didn't he speak about this to the media then? Why wouldn't he bring it up in an attempt to embarrass people if it bothered him?

Or 2013 Buffalo Bills because on any given Sunday.

2013 Buffalo Bills... On any given Sunday.

>= 4 wins. Draft was nice but new coach and too young.

Ok these were some of the "cons" listed, I am guessing they listed plenty or "pros" or complements? When you just list the negatives without the positive side any QB would look bad.

Going with EJ they all have potential, I'll take that with his size and running for his life ability.

This will sound dumb because it is the same player... But a Nassib drafted in the 1st or early 2nd is better than a Nassib drafted in the 3rd. If the Bills or someone picks him up early then that tells me that someone believes he may just be a franchise QB. But a Nassib picked in the 3rd means to me that they feel he is not and has severe flaws. I know this sounds dumb as it is the same player, I just don't think every team needing a QB or backup would pass on someone they feel is close to the real deal. Bash away.

Don't know if I should believe this or sick April fool's joke?

^. ||. This!!!

That's assuming that the NFL would meet the demographics of America, on the surface one would assume most players would not fit the American demographic. Most would assume the number would tend to be lower? Having said that it probably goes the other way. (-;

I realize that the reporter sites an actual player but statistically it is possible that there could be zero gay players in the NFL. The NFL is hardly a true slice of the American population. People are always shocked when I point out that only 2% of the US Population is gay or lesbian. People generally think it is much higher because of all the press it gets. The number is even less in Canada not that there's anything wrong with it. http://m.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2012/05/americans-have-no-idea-how-few-gay-people-there-are/257753/ http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_percentage_of_Canada_is_gay#page1

This thread is so gay!

Exactly, Base his contract on how many games he plays.

It's obvious, SUPERBOWL!

He didn't make it. What a joke! http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/8908467/pro-football-hall-fame-narrows-list-10-finalists Offensive linemen Larry Allen and Jonathan Ogden; coach Bill Parcells; receiver Cris Carter; and defensive lineman Warren Sapp. These are the people that made it.

Silly, that's what makes it so good.

Didn't the opposite happen in our 1st game last year? How did that work out for us again?

Bradenton. Fl lived in Holland NY and Black Rock section of Buffalo

So your going with 7-9?

He misses out on the signing bonus, cash in hand he has been dreaming about spending. But not that big of a deal with $9 + mil comming.

I'm confused, those pants were green?

Noting some now gone stadiums are still in debt, is the Ralph even paid for? Good luck paying that debt off if the Bills were to leave, what does that leave the taxpayers on the hook for? At least Ralph understands that a new stadium is unaffordable and is not asking for that like some owners would.
