Dan Snyder registered "Washington Warriors" a long time ago. That would still continue using an Indian moniker probably, which I think would be a mistake.

Do the right thing, Snyder. "Washington Red Pandas"

They also canceled the "Redskinettes".

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

That word is disparaging to the English language.

Washington Hogs would be a legitimately good name.

^ Orange Line is usually okay for me. But man, "Red Line Delays" feels redundant in my experience.

I'm not saying it's right or wrong, but when was the tipping point that made this an issue after no one really gave a poo poo for 80 years? Did the NCAA's decision on Indian mascots kind of reopen the debate? Does the fact that Snyder is such an rear end in a top hat in general play into it?

It's been an issue for over 30 years, partially because only in recent history have Native American groups had any sort of political power.

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.

:sigh:

Isn't part of the resistance because Washington fans want their rivalry with the Cowboys to "match" the team names?

It is part of it, but I'm not sure why. The Indians lost...

(we are the stupidest fanbase on the planet)

We will talk a big offensive game, but probably just go 3-and-out on every drive.

Chris Cooley, you used to be a lovable goof, now you're just an ignorant Dan Snyder talking head

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs...g-the-chargers/

yes, the chargers, well done sir, you have bested all of the arguments, why didn't we think of that before.

-- Just kinda goes to show that the team and the players don't actually talk to real Native Americans, so anything talking about "pride" is just bullshit.
