I don't think you fully understood the post sir.

Woke is a tired term and in general I only see it used by politicians pandering for votes or grifters lining their pockets off simpletons.

Maybe one day you'll have an awakening.

If you say so.  

I'm going to drop this and stick to the topic.   

The Redskin name should come back for no other reason than it should have never been removed.

Well before crying about it not being a Panther topic.  Please go through the menu and you'll see several topics that aren't Panther related.   

The best way to go about you day if you don't like the topic is STFU and go about your day.  When the moderators tell us ONLY Panther topics than I conform as I have for the past 20 years on this forum. 

Wiping away history is the best thing you can do, right?  It's funny that removing Uncle Ben and Aunt Jemima and others classic brands for the sake of wokeness now we only have white people on our brands.  Kind of backwards.

Exactly

If reading comprehension is a problem, please see someone.  If you can read.  I said They might be reverting back to the Redskins.  Key word being MIGHT.

As far as whether they will or won't is up to the owner but it's being discussed.

The right thing to do is change it back.  The Redskins should be the name they should have never gotten rid of.  

@MHS831 Mentioned 38% in a poll.  One poll.  I have seen where other polls that were in FAVOR of keeping the name.  It just depends on who is polling.

Bottom line IMO a group of Native Americans.  The Native American Guardian Association has filed a lawsuit to change it back.  If a Native American group wants it back.  Who the hell are we to disagree. It comes down to the WOKE crowd can't stop interfering in everything they can get their hands on. 

Ur not my mom...so u STFU.

People misconstrue no longer celebrating and lauding racism, slurs, etc. as "censorship".

Using this logic I should be able to turn on my TV right now and see white actors in black face shucking and jiving to "Dixie", otherwise it's "erasing history".

And everyone that doesn't agree with you is a RACIST.

Exactly!  If the pollster wants to achieve a certain result, they know who TO and who NOT TO poll.  Native Americans don't want to be wiped away from the national identity.  Having their names and likeness in popular culture, like sports, keeps them relevant.

Oh I am sure that's coming.  Just because I don't believe in deleting history and changing everything to conform to their way of thinking.  I am going to be called a racist. 

Well, its history that in the early 1900's "redskins" was in fact a slur towards Native Americans akin to how the n-word or "negros" were to refer to black people. So yes, if you see no problem with a team calling themselves the Cincinnati Negros, then you might be a racist.

The only reason "redskins" wasn't more controversial when the team had it is because Native Americans are such a tiny minority of America (sadly) that most people were ignorant of it and there was little media pressure to change it.

My reading comprehension is fine.  The author, and you, just wanted some clicks, nothing more.  They said that they weren't thinking about a name change of any sort at this time.  

 Basically, it was corporate PR talk for, we aren't going to do that, but we aren't going to tell people we aren't going to do it.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
