You can’t make this stuff up. Now they want their name “redskins” back!

[Steve-o]

I s'pose if you took a poll, 49% of Americans would want it one way and the other 51% would want it the other.

Regarding the article specifically...  To the group that is suing...

THEY ARE A FOOTBALL TEAM.  THEY AREN'T CUSTER'S 7TH CAVALRY.  THEY DIDN'T OPPRESS ANYONE.  THEY ARE NOT RACIST.  THEY ARE STUPID SPORTS FOOTBALL TEAM!!!

There.  I'm glad I got that off my chest.   

[LPS]

Exactly!  This renaming things is MN naive.

A lot of these stupid name change things have been started by a bunch of Woke guilt ridden white folks.  I've always thought they should meet with all the Tribe leaders in each state a team is in and see if they really care or want the name changed?   

[glenn57]

leech, that would make sense.......

[Steve-o]

I don't think you could get local tribe leaders to agree either.   Just look at what the article says.  The claims made by the crack-pot Indian "leader" don't make sense.  He's just trying to get publicity and make a buck.

The Native American Guardians Association (NAGA) accuses the NFL franchise and new owner Josh Harris of defamation, civil conspiracy and civil rights violations for their role in suppressing Native American history, in a complaint filed in the United States District Court of North Dakota.

NAGA led a viral petition this summer demanding that the organization reclaim its traditional Redskins identity.

"Commanders is a fitting name for oppressors," the suit stated.

The group seeks $1.6 million in damages and "a seat at the table to share Native American history."

The new owner didn't oppress ANYONE.  He kowtowed to the woke mob, which wasn't the right thing to do according to this guy, and so now he is stirring the pot some more and trying to cash in.

I personally liked the old name.  So just read that the Jets are signing Trevor Seiman. Ex Vikes backup.   

[Gunner55]

Lambeau got very quiet early last night when Detroit scored a TD to go up 24-3 with not even 2 minutes gone in the 2nd quarter. GB never got within 10 after that. Love was hit a lot & sacked 5 times.

[LPS]

Later on Packers players were raising their hands to get the crowd going.  Still was quiet as a church. 

[Steve-o]

Lions could be legit.  They beat GB and the Vikes and continue to roll.

For years we've been saying "the Lions are the Lions and they always find a way to screw it up," BUT how many seasons do we find that the Vikings still split wins/losses with the Lions.  We should be kicking their butts, but always seem to play down to them.

NOW, the Lions do look legit, or certainly better than anyone else in the NFC North.

The Vikes might not be as bad as an 0-3 team this year, but last year they weren't as good as a 13-4 team last year either.

I'm callin' it...  The Lions WILL make the playoffs, the Vikings won't.  (Yeah, bold prediction now that the Lions are 3-1 and the Vikes are 0-3  )

Travis Kelce + Taylor Swift   

makes a better storyline for the NFL than Adrian Peterson on Dancing with the Stars.   



Just sayin...

Da Bears @ Washinton, for those of you that have Prime.

[LPS]

They said that Adrian barely made it due to the crowd not approving of him.

Funny how pleading no contest to misdemeanor reckless assault charges will lower your public approval rating.   

[LPS]

Exactly

He doesn't quite fall into the same team as Watson and Vick as lowlifes but might end up on a list with PacMan Jones and Ray Lewis in my mind.

[glenn57]

just read Dick Butkus dead!!!!

[Jerkbiat]

That's sad. RIP Dick Butkus.

[Gunner55]

  A great player & not bad in the booth either as he wasn't afraid to say what he was thinking. RIP, DB.

[mike89]

a good guy I think...RIP....

[Steve-o]

He was a larger than life character who stood head and shoulders above his peers.  He will be remembered among the all time greats.

[LPS]

Yes very impressive person.  RIP Dick.

[glenn57]
