Once trademark is removed . What is next?

Anyone can use the name Redskins and Logo (i.e. mattyk will be able to use the domain name redskinswarpath.com SmootSmack is free to make Redskins jerseys in his basement without consequence).

Right, and it's not like the Washington Redskins won't be allowed really to continue as the Redskins. Just that their trademark will be diluted, as I understand it

Thing is they think they can prove the term "Redskin" is .....slander ....a racist saying.Do I agree no and will be the first to say that sometimes things are carried to far but with that said ...lets not forget the Court is now different to ethnic case's then it once was(get my point).
If I was was Dan I do it.....look at all the money people would spend in 2 different ways.

1) Buy up as much old Redskin memorabilia as possible!

2) People will buy the hell out of the new stuff!

Snyder already owns trademarks on Warriors I believe. Just in case.

We're not the Giants...I'd like to think we're more creative than that.

Give it up already. The team is named after an American Indian that was the coach of the team. Isn't there a limit to how many times you can take someone to court? I can't see the supreme court accepting this case either way.

If not, Snyder already has Washington Warrior merchandise ready to go.

I have always felt they should feel honored.
