If you are Snyder why not name the the Washington Grey's to poke fun at your own racism while looking like you are trying to honor an Old Washignton team.

Atticus Finch posted:I had a friend wonder why Obama is worried about this instead of anchor babies. Yup. I starting to think that when conservatives yell about BIG GOVERNMENT, they think that Government is literally Obama. Like, one big giant that is only capable of doing one thing at a time. The Eye of Sauron but without the army of orcs. There's no other plausible answer why people will earnestly say that the USPTO should be investigating Benghazi or IRS Emails.

As a rule, people are stupid, especially when given the freedom to basically do whatever they feel like non-stop, like facebook/twitter. But BIG GOVERNMENT to conservatives isn't Obama, it's filthy Liberals.

Isn't part of the resistance because Washington fans want their rivalry with the Cowboys to "match" the team names? The Washington Cholera The Washington Dysentery The Washington Typhoid I'm sure Seth MacFarlane could consult.

I find any suggestion that the Redskins change their brand to "honor" some other ethnic group to be gimmicky. Yeah, we all get it. There are a lot of black people in D.C. Let's call the team Redtails/Carvers/Southeast Jeromes Call them Washington Reskins Komet fucked around with this message at 16:27 on Jun 19, 2014 |

As a lifelong Redskins fan, I'm thrilled about this development. I really, really want the name to change and the sooner the better. I basically can't read any Redskins blogs these days because of the vile poo poo people post in support of the name. I'm ashamed of soooo much of the fanbase and I just can't get excited for football to start because of it. I don't want to be on the same side as these people. I just want to read about and root for my football team without broader social implications. I'm jealous of pretty much every other football team. Edit: CannonFodder posted:Los Washington Zetas.

Our drum line occasionally broke from the band uniforms and marched in wearing dark suits, sunglasses, and fedoras.  Alternatively, the Washington Bureaucrats, mascot is Hermes Conrad.

The timeframe that would be realistic for a name change is when the FedEx Field lease is up and a move back to the site of RFK is realistic. The federal government will make it a priority to change. But they would be back in they District hurray

Hey guys, you know what would be funny? If Dan Snyder renamed the team the Washington... SNYDERS! Then he could see how it feels to be part of the name of a prejudiced team.  Or what about, the Washington Bad Free Agency Contracts?? Seems like he's always making bad decisions in free agency! Maybe something about the government... Washington Liars anyone? Or maybe he should just call it the Washington RG3s. Heaven knows Robert's ego is big enough!Anyone else have any more funny suggestions for what the Redskins could be renamed to?

Having a parking pass makes it less of a lovely experience though. Going to Eagles, Ravens and Steelers games it was weird to be able to go to a bar, have some beer and then go walk to the stadium.

But there's that death march from the metro stadium, with all the people selling water and the bucket drummers  RFK is also in a sea of concrete, even if that sea of concrete is closer.
