Rye Miles #13621 Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 http://tracking.si.com/2014/06/18/washington-redskins-trademark-cancelled/ This has happened once before to the Redskins, I guess we'll see what happens this time! Are the Cleveland Indians, Chief Wahoo next?? Rye
Jim No Horse Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 Who are the Cleveland Indians??? Just kidding Rye....Jim....hope they are not Comanches...
Old Scatterbrain Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 They should change their name to The Blue-Eyed Devils.
Dusty Balz, SASS#46599 Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 I suspect the gay community will have an issue with "The Packers" The short folks with "The Giants" the incontinent folks with "The Browns" The AA folks with "The Brewers" Oh yeah what's with this place called The "Cracker" Barrel aimed at country folks, I take offense to that WHEN WILL THIS STUPID CRAP END?!!!!!
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 Well, I for one do take exception to the name of WASHINGTON REDSKINS. Not the Redskins part, the Washington Part.
Jim No Horse Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 At least we know what an Indian is......what's an Astro???? Jim
Blackwater 53393 Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 At least we know what an Indian is......what's an Astro???? Jim They were the first victims of this political correctness BULL CRAP!! They were originally the Colt 45s!!!
Charlie Plasters, SASS#60943 Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 How about the Washington Jerkoff Politicians?
Rancocas Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 How about the Washington Jerkoff Politicians? Wow, that's an insult to all the .......
Jack N. Water Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 At least we know what an Indian is......what's an Astro???? Jim George Jetsons dog
Birdgun Quail, SASS #63663 Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 Oh NO! I just found out that we have a state that is just as offensive. A state called "Red People" in the Choctaw tongue. Oklahoma is "disparaging to Native Americans"! Congress and the President need to stop working on all other problems and insist on changing the names of the state Oklahoma and the team Washington Redskins. I was born in Oklahoma. Why am I not an Native American?
Boon Doggle Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 And we wonder what is wrong with our government?
Cherokee Charlie Regulator #4967 Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 It all started 6 years ago.
Hacker, SASS #55963 Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 And we wonder what is wrong with our government? You mean you haven't figured out what is wrong yet??????
Hacker, SASS #55963 Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 It all started 6 years ago. It has been going on longer than that. This anti-gun crapola has been going on since JFK days and earlier. But the generalized BS from washington has been going on a lot longer. However you are right that the localized BS field from washington has gotten a lot more intense 6 years ago.
Hacker, SASS #55963 Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 I believe that the core problem lies with certain subsets of the baby boomer generation and their lack responsibility to reality.
Hacker, SASS #55963 Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 On the Washington Redskins issue, the canceling of the trademark doesn't go into effect until the appeals are over so this could take a long time. And it really isn't like anyone really cares. Moreover if this appeal has any legal precedence type stuff involved, it has already been reversed once. So why would it be approved or sustained a second time. Why is it that we hear only about congress disliking it and government entities disliking it and not hearing anything from actually offended "redskins". (please substitute whatever politically correct baloney term for "redskins" that you like.
Shorty Jack Hammer Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 I'm voting that they change them to the Washington Pieles rojas I'm going after the Vikings next...it's an insult to us Norsk people

Why am I not an Native American? I live in Creek Nation, Indian Territory... ...is that better???
Rye Miles #13621 Posted June 19, 2014 Author Posted June 19, 2014 How about the Pittsburgh Pirates? Do we really want our kids rooting for murderers and thieves?? How about the Milwaukee Brewers?? Kids looking up to people making that nasty stuff, beer?? Let's not forget the San Diego Padres, isn't that discriminatory to Jews, Muslims, atheists etc.?? L A Angels??? Not everyone believes in angels now c'mon!! This is ridiculous liberal nonsense that's not gonna stop EVER!!! Rye GO TRIBE!!!!! KEEP CHIEF WAHOO!!
Badlands Bob #61228 Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 They've been trying to get the Atlanta Braves to change their name for years. And the "chop" is also politically incorrect and not to be encouraged. When I was a kid, they had Chief Knockahoma as their mascot. I think a well planned counter suit for legal expenses might be in order.
backshootin beauford mcgee Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 To my way of thinking. If the OWNER likes the name, then that is what they should be called. Why should anyone be able to tell you what you should call your business.
Smoken D Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 K.C. Chiefs and the tomma-hawk chop. Bob riding Warpaint after a touchdown. I guess they will have to change the name of the town I live near by. Warsaw, Missouri since it is offensive to all the Pollocks in Poland. Geee, guess we could keep going for ever

Noz Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 POOP! People offended by offended people Only good thing I have been noticing is that the Springfield(Missouri) News Leader is a relatively leftist paper but their political editorial cartoons have been vigorously anti Obama lately.

Eamon Chute Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 Then Notre Dame will have to change their name.....the FIGHTING IRISH. As an American of Irish heritage, I am deeply offended by the MERE idea that all Irish like to fight. Not true!!!! Not true by a LOOOOONG shot. ............many of us much prefer to drink. Just sayin'. EC
