Ok, I am really getting tired of the whining about the name of the Washing NFL club. The Redskins are a proud team with a very respectful name of which they are very respectful So, let me add another example of the stupidity of brain dead Harry Reid and the concern about the naming of the Washington Football team the REDSKINS.
This was sent to me by someone who is sane enough to see through the garbage, but I added my own observation at the end. be sure to read through completely.
Incorrect Team Names
I agree with our Native American population. I am highly insulted by the racially charged name of the Washington Redskins. One might argue that to name a professional football team after Native Americans would exalt them as fine warriors, but nay. We must be careful not to offend, and in the spirit of political correctness and courtesy, we must move forward.
Let's ditch the Kansas City Chiefs, the Atlanta Braves and the Cleveland Indians.
If your shorts are in a wad because of the reference the name Redskins makes to skin color, then we need to get rid of the Cleveland Browns.
The Carolina Panthers obviously were named to keep the memory of militant Blacks from the 60's alive. Gone. It's offensive to the white folk.
The New York Yankees offend the Southern population. Do you see a team named for the Confederacy? No! There is no room for any reference to that tragic war that cost this country so many young men’s lives.
I am also offended by the blatant references to the Catholic religion among our sports team names. Totally inappropriate to have the New Orleans Saints, the Los Angeles Angels or the San Diego Padres.
Then there are the team names that glorify criminals who raped and pillaged. We are talking about the horrible Oakland Raiders, the Minnesota Vikings, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Pittsburgh Pirates! Don't forget the Oklahoma Sooners.
Now, let us address those teams that clearly send the wrong message to our children. The San Diego Chargers promote irresponsible fighting or even spending habits. Wrong message to our children.
The New York Giants and the San Francisco Giants promote obesity, a growing childhood epidemic. Wrong message to our children.
The Cincinnati Reds promote downers/barbiturates. Wrong message to our children.
The Milwaukee Brewers---well that goes without saying. Wrong message to our children.
So, there you go. We need to support any legislation that comes out to rectify this travesty, because the government will likely become involved with this issue, as they should. Just the kind of thing the do-nothing congress loves.
With all of this in mind, it might also make some sense to change the name of the Oregon State women's athletic team to something other than "the Beavers.”
My observation: If anyone really wants to go in the direction of correcting politically sensitive names which are considered derogatory towards Native Americans, forget about the Oklahoma Sooners team name, eliminate the name of the state itself.for it, by the definition of the politically correct progressive name police, is more "racist" than the term Redskins and it is condoned by the Federal Government as well as brain dead Harry. Funny how we never hear brain dead Harry state that he will neither vist or pass through Oklahoma until they change their name. Funny how we don't hear from a group of Native Americans from upstate NY screaming about how offended they are by the name of one of our 50 states. Where is the class action lawsuit to change the name of Oklahoma? Where is the television commercial during a championship sporting event discussing the atrocity speaking the name of our 46th state? You see, Oklahoma is the Choctaw (a Native American tribe, in case you didn't know) word for "Red People", ie...Okla = people and humma = red, so if the politically correct progressive name police are going to get all bent over and claim racism in the name of a sports team, perhaps first they should sue the Federal government to change the name of our 46th state.
