desertfox59 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 The reason that ESPN doesn't talk about the redskins in the playoff hunt, is because of the liberal ethos that exist in the company. The word "Redskins" is a slander to what the people at ESPN consider to be "Native Americans" Now if the skins were called the "Washington Navative Americans" then there would be story after story. This, by the way, is why the liberal NFL officials association have continually blown call after call even after the video review shows that those crappy calls should be overturned... the leaque is doing everthing it can to ensure that the national media and the other liberal associations don't have to say "Redskins" on the air for fear of offending someone. I love the skins...but the deck is stacked....the fix is in....and sadly no amount of Joe Gibbs complaining to the league is going to fix that.:dallasuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockANDallstar Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 One thing in there is true, we do have a name that can be seen to some as "racist" or whatever. But under NO circumstances does that have ANYTHING to do with ref calls or ESPN mentioning us in the playoff hunt... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iheartskins Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Couple things: 1. No politics in the Stadium. 2. There are a ton, literally 2000lbs worth of threads , that deal with this topic, please use the search function and pick up the discussion of the perceived media bias against the 'Skins in those threads (keeping point 1 in mind). Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
