      Look out the INDIANS and Braves will be up next if the Redskins are gone.

      Not so sure the name Indians is considered offensive but what do I know? nothing offends me.

      This is also a game well sort of of "who's got the hammer" and right now black lives and minorities in general have it.....and intend on using it.

      It will be very interesting to see what laws and other changes like tearing down statues and renaming sports teams actually happen and for how long.

      This is all going on with a pandemic brewing in the background, 2020 has been one hell of a year.....so far.

      GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND!

        Jim Crow isn't a game.

        The single greatest act of racial violence in American history? Yep, white mobs destroying black businesses and killing black people.

        And you call it "A Game" when they as a people have in fact had enough - nationwide?

        If you don't like it, deport yourself.  After all, that's the same phrase your favorite TV channel loves to say!

          This is what I said in it's entirety and with no value judgements of any kind.

          ....."This is also a game well sort of of "who's got the hammer" and right now black lives and minorities in general have it.....and intend on using it."......

          If I were them I'd probably do the same thing.  OK?

                  Paul Brown was one of the first 2 coaches in the NFL to roster a black player - in 1946, one year before Jackie Robinson.  He didn't roster one, he rostered two. Yes, the Browns actually were one of the first two teams to "Break the Color Barrier" in the NFL.

                  Those guys are on my roster in any era - Marion Motley and Bill Willis.

                  I'm not shocked you can't be bothered to learn the real history of the Browns before trying to run your racist BS on this forum.  Facts don't care about your feelings.

                  Don't like getting called out? Then delete your account, baby boy. 

                  Or keep it on the political forum where you'll be welcomed and encouraged to hate tangible actions! Instead, you can just repeat syllables and tell yourself that Perfect Racial Harmony (tm) has already been achieved and therefore no behavior changes are needed from The Way It Was In 1863.  You know, a Republican!

                  Holy shit!! lol

                  I simply said "lets hope he doesn't have any skeletons in his closet".... cause we all have em... even YOU. 

                  I never said a bad word about the man, but you couldn't wait to get a poundin' on that key board to call me a racist, a baby boy (that made me lol) and hoping I delete my account so you could claim a Cancel victory.

                  You need to get a girlfriend, or boyfriend... not that there's anything wrong with that. (I'm sure that last part flew right over your head)

                      Joint Berkeley and Michigan study on how Native Americans view the name Redskins, and other sport mascot issues. More comprehensive than other studies that have been brought up on this, as it's a peer reviewed published academic paper and not just an online poll by a newspaper.

                            You act like this is a new controversy. People have taken issue with that team name for decades. If you were native American I'm sure you'd have an issue with it.

                                .......FedEx isn’t alone in pressuring the team to change its name, either. Eighty-seven investors and shareholders, reportedly worth a combined $620 billion, signed a letter on Wednesday urging Nike, FedEx and PepsiCo to end their relationships with the team. A Native American group called for players to boycott the season over the name last weekend.

                                Several politicians and Washington, D.C. officials also made it clear that the team needs a new name if it wants to move into a new stadium in D.C. — something Snyder wants to do when his current lease at FedExField expires in 2027.........more in link........

                                .......FedEx isn’t alone in pressuring the team to change its name, either. Eighty-seven investors and shareholders, reportedly worth a combined $620 billion, signed a letter on Wednesday urging Nike, FedEx and PepsiCo to end their relationships with the team. A Native American group called for players to boycott the season over the name last weekend.

                                  The Cleveland Indians have just posted that they are looking into the possibility of a name change. 

                                  The Cleveland Spiders are going to have some bad ass merchandise! ?

                                    Now Fedex is demanding the Redskins change their name.....this is getting really stupid.

                                    You act like this is a new controversy. People have taken issue with that team name for decades. If you were native American I'm sure you'd have an issue with it.
