just had a great discussion about this with a co-worker. he asked me if i had heard about "all this fuss" about the r******s name, and that he thought it was bogus. there's no reason for anyone to get offended, he can't understand why anyone would, and he doesn't consider the term slanderous or racist. then i asked him about who was leading the effort to change the name, and he said some native american groups were involved. uhh...
he also said
"there was a time when geronimo was on the u.s. nickel - it's an honor."
can't argue with that!

Hate it, but the issue is not going away - we deal with it every year and the voices get louder and louder.""I'm soooo tired of all the PC stuff. This country needs to pull on its big boy pants, and worry about real problems."

Doesn't matter. The 81-year-old Washington http://images.chron.com/blogs/askacat/hatcat.JPG name is falling, and everybody better get out of the way. For the majority of Native Americans who don't care, we'll care for them. For the Native Americans who haven't asked for help, we're glad to give it to them.
Trust us. We know what's best. We'll take this away for your own good, and put up barriers that protect you from ever being harmed again.
Kind of like a reservation.

cause i mean, i still think it's bad, but that would kind of be good infos to know
i imagine that several BIG BOSSES at ESPN wanted to manufacture a contrived counterpoint to the clear and obvious point of "hey this team name is a clear racial slur that refers to SKIN COLOR and somehow managed to limp into the 21st century with this hella outdated and generally offensive name" so that they weren't perceived to be looking at both sides of the issue and down to the bullpen they went and who raised their goddamned hand but rick fucking reillyi mean for crying out loud the article tag on the sidebar reads: "Not A Cause For Everyone - The outrage over the name http://images.chron.com/blogs/askacat/hatcat.JPG isn't universal."

football men that i command, let me tell you - this is not a game. this is a war. this is not a playing field. this is a battlefield. we will fight to the death for every single yard, and we may not return home. we might die out there as heroes who will never be forgotten. they'll make statues of you, those of you who are willing to sacrifice, at least. we will take the fight to the enemy and punish them. then i will run for senate

i would rather the washington football club *didn't* extract $1B+ in public money from the district of columbia to build a new stadium on the former RFK site
yet nor does it seem appropriate that the president of the united states demand that the team be called the washington n____s lest he shut the stadium deal down
after all, hatcats is right there
― mookieproof, Tuesday, 22 July 2025 03:55 (ten months ago)
My possibly controversial opinion is that there was never anything “good” going to come of the old RFK stadium site - Muriel wanted her legacy, she loves developers, they never intended it to turn into affordable housing or something
