Great White Hope posted:Well, I don't know what the Chiefs' origin is, but the Blackhawks honor a local thing, and local team names are the best ones. And yet the Illini I do like a poster called The Great White Hope stumping for the exploitation of other heritages for profit though. Keep it up

Only tangentially related, but hilarious http://indie88.com/a-tribe-called-red-member-accused-of-being-racist/ quote:A Tribe Called Red member Ian Campeau has been accused of being racist by Westfest festival goers after sporting a “Caucasian” t-shirt mocking the Cleveland Indians. A Tribe Called Red? Boooooo

Alternately, if Chich tells someone to shut up and people start agreeing, woe be unto the person he was referring to

I for one am convinced. Now that I know the Redskins are one of the most valuable franchises in the world, their name being racist no longer matters

So what basis do you have for believing the trademark will be reinstated? Because it happened last time based on a technicality that has been worked around this time? Or are you sticking with the "The Redskins are incredibly valuable and thus can do what they want" theory?

Chichevache posted:Yea, but this time the title is right. Admittedly the fact that he came into this thread with a "Heh, you liberals  " attitude doesn't do him any favors

Nybble posted:Chris Cooley, you used to be a lovable goof, now you're just an ignorant Dan Snyder talking head Discussing if the Redskins lose their appeal posted:Czaban: The only good counter argument is to say as soon as the Kansas City Chiefs and the Cleveland Indians and the Florida State Seminoles all want to do this then we’d certainly listen to them if they want us to join their movement to change their names….[Otherwise] say we’ll be the Washington Chiefs and paint a more racist picture on the side of the helmets, a buck-toothed Native American that says Chiefs. It won’t say Redskins, but it’ll be a really ugly Native American. It will not be a proud, dignified Native American. It’ll be very cartoonish, like Chief Wahoo, with a big buck-toothed smile.
