I feel like one of these threads pops up every month when some new article comes out by some bored sports-writer who is too lazy to think of something else to write about.

There are segments of the population who probably have some kind of forum or prostest or whatever regarding the team name every week. Nothing new to see or discuss and im glad to see no one is bothering to debate the issue here. It does not merit discussion, only dismissal.

BHA, you don't find the name offensive or one that merits a debate even?

Am I the only one that went to listen for a few minutes. Every time they mentioned the Redskins I typed in HTTR in the coversation area. After I listened for about 5 min I realized some people think way to hard on these issues.

This "debate" has been what, 20+ years in the making? Gotta think if it had real merit something would have changed by now.

Goodell was asked about it at the SB and he basically shrugged it off as no big deal. Doesn't seem to be an issue on his radar.

By the way, I agree with everyone here.

No, and No.

The issue has been debated for decades. There's nothing new to discuss. There are no new arguments to be made. We're in a part of the off-season where there is almost nothing of note to discuss, and i'm still not interested in having an actual discusion about the issue.

Edit - I see a poll was added to the discussion. I will not vote on issue because i dont think it merits a vote.

So because it's been debated for 20 years means it's not worthy of debate now? Not following that logic.

Its called beating a dead horse, and is a pretty common concept.

And here I thought we were going to talk about all the boring art at the Smithsonian that we saw on our class field trip to DC :lol:
