They should’ve just let ‘em pull it and not had a sponsor name on the stadium. Don’t need the $$ anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pennstate10 Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 For what its worth, I have cousins who are half Oglala Lakota (Sioux). My uncle married a "full blood" registered tribe member. They didnt stay up nights worrying about the name Redskins, but they didnt like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Noggin Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 6 hours ago, Dr. Who said: I'm one of those who does not think the name is derogatory. It was a classic logo. No one names a team after a group that is not embraced as valuable. Why do that? But if it is too volatile an issue, going back to Washington Football Team isn't a bad fall back. I started to like it once I got used to it. Have you ever been told what "Redskin" refers to? I'll wait... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigDingus Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Come up with something you can actually use as a logo on the side of the helmet & not just a letter... What even is a "Commander?" Are they all just 53 people of the same military rank? Lame! It's so boring they basically just kept the WFT logo. At least when Washington's other team had to change their name, they got creative with it & went with "Wizards" 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1ManRaid Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 I was also a fan of the Football Team name.
