I hope they change it! there name "Washington" is really offensive!
If they were a true fan then they wouldn't want the name changed. How can they be a real fan?
And 100% have better things to do with their time
I think they should change their name to "The Washington Global Warming"
There's a chill wind blowing when those liberals try to take away free speech rights.
they shouldve changed it to the "washington dumsumbisches"...then again, i guess you could say "congress" for short.

No. Your president.
11:05 Agreed. Name " Washington" is absolutely offensive and derregatory nowadays. I wish the owner Dan Snyder would move the team few miles to state of Virginia and build the new stadium there. Redskins have practice facility in Ashburn, VA so why not just make a move and change name to VIRGINIA REDSKINS. Tell those crooks in D.C. we taking our business and tax revenue elsewhere. I bet all Virginians would be thrilled.
washington whiteskins? Or Washington blackskins?
God made that name, and it stuck.
Deal with it.
DC seems to want to keep the name, does this mean Andy Harris will introduce a bill to change the name?
