gonatsskinswiz91 Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 There's been an on going debate for a while now about whether the name "Redskins" is racist nickname or not. So I ask you, my fellow fans: Is Redskins a racist name? :wewantd: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Master Jay Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 No the Redskins isn't a good name it's a great name of a wonderful football organization. The Mascot is cool and laid back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaceman Spiff Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 Is this a popular topic? I've never heard anything about this before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. S Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 I think Raiders is offensive, classifies Oakland as a city full of outlaws and brigands, even if it may be partially true... Minnesota Vikings, calling them a bunch of barbarians Titans, signals a good defeat there, we need to make a new team called the Olympians New England Patriots, well there must be some liberals there who arent patriotic :laugh: (yes I know im bashing my own kind) By this logic, the Redskins are just as racist as most teams out there. Though a search feature would also be nice, which are in the RULES you were to have read, I believe the name was changed from Braves to Redskins by a native american.

Crazyhorse1 Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 No. I think names like Ravens, Eagles, Seahawks, and Cardinals are exploitive of birds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
