Washington in Redskins name change shocker.

What makes me laugh is that it really should be changed, it doesn’t matter, but Snyder held onto it for such a ridiculous amount of time until sponsors told him they’re yanking money. Snyder should think of the retail margin. The cunt.

    Looks like IF a season is to happen you will have to sign a waiver to attend a game. Perfect.

      10 days later

      Redskins name and logo are retired. Shame it took the money to change Snyder’s mind, but it’s good to move on from this debacle.

        I’m willing to concede that much of this racism stuff has nuance and can be complicated.

        “Redskins” was never nuanced nor complicated. Utterly daft name. Snyder should have been lined and quartered ages ago.

          My man. Brutal. Had two of the best 10 players ever (IMO - Barry and Megatron) and haven’t managed to pull anything together. Rough.

              How come? I know a Lions fan here in the UK - he can’t answer that question. As bad as the Washington team have been, at least they’ve won a few Super Bowls and two of them I’ve seen live on tele.

                    Rumours flying around of a scandal in Washington which could see Snyder lose the team.

                      yeah washington fans have to be happy if snyder is out.

                      This is terrible news. I hope Mr. Snyder fights to the end.

                        Although the Bezos take over would be hilarious

                        Seems to involve sexual harassment and assault, racial discrimination and all of the front office for the last 20 years or so. Bruce Allen has gone rogue. If true, a cynic would think the sudden name change was an effort to gather some good PR ahead of this shit.

                        Will need more popcorn.

                        Seems to implicate Gruden and Colt McCoy, which would be nice - double-bubble, if you will.
