Spaceman Spiff Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 I'd hedge a bet on the fact that...the NFL isn't too proud of our name "Redskins" and the negative connotations that some people associate it with. Not to turn this into one of the infamous/famous threads on this board about changing the franchise name...but I'd bet the league is hesitant to promote anything "Redskins" related due to backlash from groups who hate Native american mascots/names.

prophet Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 NFL films put out the History of the Redskins back in '88 I think. I have it on VHS somewhere. Its pretty good. Goes from the Boston Braves to the Washington Redskins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the case, why wouldn't the NFL be hesitant to open MNF with the REDSKINS against the Vikings this year, have the REDSKINS host the Thursday night season opener in 2003, or have their own NFL Network provide a national broadcast of a REDSKINS scrimmage?

whatmeworry Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 They made a video tape of the team's history a few years back. I have it somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topdogbran Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 I wrote Warner Bros. about this late last year. Warner releases these for NFL films. They told me the Redskins dvd package is in production. Why Dallas and Oakland got them before a franchise that started in the 30's is beyond me...but like I said, it's in the works according to WB's. I have a production done in the early 90's that chronicles most of the history. It's called the Greatest Moments in Washington Redskins History. It was sold at Safeway stores and sponsored by Kodak. I have no idea why NFL films hasn't re-released this on DVD, but I transfered my VHS to DVD just to be sure I'd have an archival copy for the future.

It's the best overall history of the Redskins that I've seen, with priceless clips. It was released in 1994 and could be had for $8.99. It's short but sweet. I love the picture of Charley Taylor on the sleeve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
