Pesonally, I thought changing the name of Bullets was ridiculous, as I don't think changing the name made any difference in the crime that happens in DC.
So did I, I'm not a big basketball guy and I was really just asking , I don't know if it did or it did'nt.
MPO.....I think these groups are reaching ,but times change what wasn't offensive in the 30's and 40'..is now,we must be politicly correct.Thing is as a young kid I did study Indian folklore and there is some truth to what they say.
Should the team and Dan Snyder be held responsable for thing that happen a long time ago ....no but in todays world well ya just never know.
