Re: Redskins "Name Change" Volume 10000000

Is the Redskins name offensive? For some it's personal - NFL - Michael Rosenberg - SI.com

Here is another one!!! Really, I am so tired of this.

SO why do you keep reading the articles and posting them? It's kind of like that person you know who eats or smells something bad, and then they turn to you and ask if you want to partake in their unpleasant experience.


No, no I do not.

I guess because I kind of find it funny at this point. It seems like everyone out there has to write an article these days on their opinion of the "Redskins name". We live in such a politically correct world. Here is my question for all of these media types. Take a survey of indians and find out if they even read your stuff. These articles seem to be whites or blacks trying to explain to other whites or blacks how Redskins in offensive.

Re: Redskins "Name Change" Volume 10000000

the mere fact that reservation schools call themselves redskins should just kill the issue outright. That and any indian team name or logo are the only things keeping their history alive in the first place. Its sports that got me interested in Indians. I was goth in the 80s LOL...and theres just something unique and fascinating about their art etc.

but the fact is , people and cultures do pass on and that woman cant figure that out but is more willing to kill our view of Indians then actually help it grow and be remembered.

in the 30s through the 50s many,many high schools and colleges had indian names of tribes near their territory. Now dumb asses like Wisconsin high schools and various colleges have given in with all this evidence it wasn't necessary at their finger tips...pathetic

Re: Redskins "Name Change" Volume 10000000

That article is BS. They used the term "Indian" 11 times and I did not see "Native American" once. That is PC.......suicide in my book
Can't really be taken seriously.....right?

Hog1 is saying that it is not politically correct to refer to the Native Americans as Indians.

I was really saying this type of article would not please the PC (and generally outraged) white man in his imaginary defense of Indian injustices........
Good article BTW......

I'll admit I didn't read the article (its a little long), but it is relevant.
