And yet the NFL has Snoop Dog (cop hater whose lyrics promote killing cops) as the halftime show. That is OK but we can't have the name Redskins.

 

It's Dre that was part of "F the police". Not sure Snoop ever made a cop killer lyric song. 

 

Not wholesome lyrics so I get the point.

Its a terrible name.  Has no flow to it whatsoever.  Cant even be shortened to anything and everyone is stuck annunciating a stupid 6 syllable football team name.

 

Admirals sounds a lot better

 

Still 6 syllables

Seemed like morning to me....lol

That was Rocketship 7 in the morning, right?

 

That's what I remember.  We had a small TV (well, small for its time) that sat on our kitchen table that I would turn on while eating rice krispies.

 

Star Blazers was after school....although I'm pretty sure that was when I was older.

Wonder if the K.C. Chiefs will be on the board for a name change also.

In a time when sports teams and culture in general is becoming more sensitive toward stereotypical names and imagery around indigenous people, Im shocked that Kansas City can still do their pre-game drum ceremony and the tomahawk chop.  Not to mention the fact that fans are dressed like native Americans chiefs.  

For the life one me, I can’t figure out how this is acceptable.  It’s one thing to say that a name like “Chief” or “Brave” is a tribute…it’s another to essentially parody aspects of their culture.
