Can't wait for this man to be elected to Congress to represent Utah. We need some clear thinkers in Washington. We sorely need it. Are there any adults left in the world who are in any position of authority anymore besides Trump?

Just when you think they can't think of another reason for us NOT to watch they come up with something like this.

The lefty media would f'in freak if white fans did that.
Then when they play that noise, have all the white folks in attendance bend over and moon the event. Show off some white privilege. Wink

Now they are making the Redskins change their name. I love the NFL, but reaching my limit.

Hopefully enough people show their displeasure.

The song is a gospel and includes references to God. What is the Left going to say about that???




You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

From what I read a few days ago, the Redskins' owner is still holding firm against changing the name. Do you have something more current that indicates otherwise?

This is such bullshit. I find it quite odd during all this, that our Native American brothers and sisters are never mentioned. Fucking hypocrisy. Nothing but community narcissism. It’s either this or the letter people consistently.

This is nothing but a got damn shit show. NFL is just being fake, it’s all about revenue. They are pandering. If they wanted to do something they’d spend millions and millions in inner city education or something.



What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone

Team put out a tweet they are considering it. I think Schef also tweeted they are considering it. Nothing firm. Hope they hold strong.

Redskins press release:

"In light of recent events around our country and feedback from our community, the Washington Redskins are announcing the team will undergo a thorough review of the team's name. This review formalizes the initial discussions the team has been having with the league in recent weeks.

"Dan Snyder, owner of the Washington Redskins, stated, 'This process allows the team to take into account not only the proud tradition and history of the franchise, but also input from our alumni, the organization, sponsors, the National Football League and the local community it is proud to represent on and off the field.

"Ron Rivera, Head Coach of the Washington Redskins, remarked, 'This issue is of personal importance to me and I look forward to working closely with Dan Snyder to make sure we continue the mission of honoring and supporting Native Americans and our military.'

"We believe this review can and will be conducted with the best interest of all in mind."

From who? The 14 people they asked?? GMAFB... Roll Eyes I'm so glad I stopped wasting band width on that bullshit YEARS ago. I'd rather watch Bob Ross paint the same "friendly little tree" for 3 1/2 hours than watch the National F**kedup League.

The Cleveland Indians and Atlanta Braves will be next on the list. But in the interest of staying on topic: Fuck the NFL!
