Redskins Uniforms

Its only a matter of time before the redskins change their name or their logo.

Based on what exactly? The failed movement by a very small group that's been getting shot down in court since 1991?

Ridiculous statement.

It won't happen

If the Skins changed their logo to a potato then this discussion would go away, but they arent doing that so at some point the small group will become big enough that the name and logo will change. It might be 5 years or it might 25 but it will happen. I could see them changing the name to something like Warriors and still using the spear logo.

The potato suggestion again...

Washington Spuds. I like it. No one would make fun of that team name.

There's no reason a small group of imbeciles should get bigger, what are you basing that on? They will fade away and then a marketing team will give a Powerpoint demonstration of why a name change would bring in 'X' more revenue, at that point the name will change. This will then be followed by another marketing team a few years later exulting the marketability of a brand steeped in history and we'll be back to the Redskins.

No name change is needed, no basis for it.

Without legit legal pressure it's simply not happening. 20 years have gone by and this movement has gone nowhere in court. The Supreme Court refused to even hear the case in 2009.

No love for Washington Sweet Potatoes? Washington Cheesy Potatoes sounds better actually.

When I think growing demographics... I think the American Indian!
