The real reason is that teams should be named after things with positive virtues. Patriots, Bears, etc.

 

[73PlyRR]

they should keep the name and issue everyone on the team 7/11 uniforms and put dots in the middle of their foreheads and tell everyone the team is from India. And have a sacred cow as their mascot.

IMO- "Indians" is NOT racist.

OTOH, IMO "Redskins" IS.

Been a Redskins fan all my life and quit watching the NFL once they started doing al the BLM bs.

Polls targeting Indians found that 90% were against changing the name and 73% said the name wasn't offensive.

The name redskin isn't a reference to skin color, but a reference to the red face paint Indian warriors would wear to battle.

The logo was drawn by an Indian and based on a picture of Indian Chief Two Guns White Calf:

The native Americans should be Proud that they are even recognized at all! **** this ****, all of it!!

They are proud of it. Watch the vid I posted. It's the Marxist destroying history!

 

[Sahara]

Up here where everyone actually is, umm, Indian, you would get bitch slapped for calling them Indians.
Indians come from India. Perhaps if the Cleveland team wore turbans it would be better.

 

[SgtSuperbird]

Please rename ALL the Detroit "Professional" teams, cuz they all suck! But since I've boycotted them all, I guess I don't care what they call them.

Its really hard to take change when most of us grew up in the generation of what we learned in school. I guess school was really about nothing. What a waste of education. Then what we watched on TV. Those go in the burning bin as well. Whats next? My son says we have to accept change. If he only knew what he said. There turns coming up in not to long.

 

[moparedtn]

I guess I should go back in time and sue somebody for this then:

 

[Car #4]

I can never understand how if we name a school or a bridge after a person it honours them but if we name a team after a group of people it's racist!

Depends on what sort of change he's talking about. If he's talking about the dodge charger being a four door, well that's one thing. Embracing the socialist movement and destroying traditional america, then absolutely not...

There was a time when we celebrated differences, had fun with it, didn't take each other so damn
seriously.
Hell, Don Rickles made a career out of doing so. Blazing Saddles (made by a Jew) was an entire movie
about such.
Then came political correctness....which was spawned out of, yeah, you guessed it.
Then came the big leftist wave, led by "O" who capitalized on it.
Shiyat ain't been right ever since....

I was just about to ask that: where did all of this politically correctedness come from?
