Re: Skins getting heat again over name issue
Investors call Nike, Fedex and Pepsico to cut ties with Redskins
Now I'm starting to think there is a good possibility Snyder will have to change the name.. Snyder probably already started looking at the yachts magazine for a second yacht and he will need the money. |

Re: Skins getting heat again over name issue

It seems like the Federal Gov't is now also trying to force the name change. If I am reading this article correctly, it sounds like the the Skins won't be able to move into any other stadium until the team name is changed.So now unfortunately Snyder is getting it from all sides. And I predict that if the advertisers and the governments gang up, the NFL itself will be the next group to force the name change. As for new names for the team, Dan Snyder already trademarked the name Washington Warriors back in the early '00 when he flirted with idea of owning an Arena Football team. So the transition would be natural. Also the team can bring back the Burgundy Arrowhead helmets and go with the really nice uniforms that the team wore for the 70th Anniversary in 2002.Of course I would prefer for the team to retain the name Redskins, but it seems to be a forgone conclusion that the Redskins name will be going away at some point soon. And at this point I can live with the Washington Warriors and least the team can have a nice set of uniforms. ![]() Sent from my SM-G975U1 using Tapatalk
