This period in the history of this country deserves a generic, non-descript, meaningless nickname like that. I hope that all of the busy-bodies are happy now. Add the Cleveland Guardians to that list too.Not to be confused with the old Arena league team, the Washington Commandos
Washington Football Team unveils new name: The Commanders
The franchise's new moniker replaces a long-used racist slur against Native Americans.
2% of Native Americans and White Liberals on Twitter.
It cannot be long until someone outside of PA realizes that 'Nittany' is a Native American reference and the corporate media cancels PSU...again.
Well, the word squaw is now derogatory as evidenced by Squaw Valley ski resort being forced to change it's name so I figure it's only a matter of time until the word braves is considered derogatory as well. I figure the Atlanta Braves are next in the firing line. The 2% you mention will never be satisfied. There will never be an end to this nonsense since it's not about justice for them, it's about the fight. It's about winning and forcing others to bend to their will. And that need in them will never ever go away. We could fix the problem by just ignoring that 2% but there's way too much money on the line for the people that give that 2% power for that to ever happen.
As an American of Irish decent with a very Irish last name, I am offended by Notre Dame's use of The Fighting Irish. Although the name describes some of my relatives to a tee. They were regulars in the Paddy Wagon. Whoops!
Now that Redskins is banned, I’m waiting for the push to rename the state of Oklahoma.
Crusaders is the nickname of my high school, Bishop Canevin in West Pittsburgh, and I've always been proud of it. A crusader also is the mascot of my nephew's high school, Our Lady of the Sacred Heart in Moon, although their nickname is the Chargers.
Please remember that, as a very white male, your opinion carries no weight. Leprechauns engaging in fisticuffs is a perfectly acceptable mascot to represent "Irish."
Long time Indians fan. There was no need to change the name. The Indians were originally named as a tribute to native Americans. Just a sign of the PC times. Yes, Chief Wahoo had to go. To me, they will always be the Indians.
As I've said before, if many of these people had been alive 80 years ago, it would've been much harder to have succeeded in WWII, considering the cowardly manner that has developed in this country. Even Sean Penn has referenced that men in tis country are becoming too feminized, and that says a lot coming from him.
That's what I thought that Snyder would do just to stick it to the people who wanted this change; it would've been reminiscent with how most European soccer teams are named, like Chelsea Football Club.
I was really hoping for the Washington Team of Football (WTF)....seems to capture the spirit of what Dan Snyder has done to a once proud franchise
funny Bellefonte removed "Red" and became just the Raiders and now apparently are going back again a year later to one more be the Red Raiders
This kind of stuff is nothing compared to what progressive mental cases are doing to our cities. That's something to be outraged about.
"Commandos" would have been better. Their fans could have chanted "Let's go Commando!"Not to be confused with the old Arena league team, the Washington Commandos

The Cowboys vs the Commanders just doesn't have the same ring to it.Not to be confused with the old Arena league team, the Washington Commandos

My bad. Remembered skimming an article with the following. Misread it slightly.
Truly. Wait till this crew hears about what they did to the lady M&M. Liberals changed their sexy candy!
It's a testament to your strength that with this name change you are still managing to carry on.
