84 years later, under intense pressure from billionaire companies saying that they would no longer sponsor/support/sell the team's memorabilia with the name "Redskins" attached to it, the team's owner has announced that the name will be officially retired.

I suspect that fans of rival teams (such as the Cowboys, the Giants, and the Eagles) will make fun of the new name by calling them "The Commies" ...... and pointing out that the Redskins' team colors are almost the same as that of the former Soviet Union.

Yeah, it's getting old real fast. .00001% is trying to dictate every fucking thing. How to think, how to act, how to live, fuck them. These so called pussies want socialism, they can move to a country that already has that shit in place.

Redskin is offensive to someone who is a Native American. Warriors would have been a bit more respectful

How many Redskins did they ask? It's a fucking name not a dick, don't take it so hard.

[ChaosTheory]

The Washington Post polled Native Americans in 2004 on whether or not they were offended by the team's name. 90% said they weren't.

They did the poll again in 2016 with updated methods... 90% again didn't have an issue with the team name.

A loud group like to tell other people what they are or should be offended by.
