Honestly, the rule changes of the past 10ish years, the pussification of the game in general, those bullshit sticky gloves. The game's best years has been far far behind them and they been getting by with habit and nostalgia, we'll see how it plays out this year.
let's be honest, literally Kansas City winning a Super Bowl was such a dark stain on the legacy of the league that in my view this act of heresy is what killed the NFL
everything else is just the last spasms of a headless corpse
Would you wager your opinion is in the minority among Natives? I’ve been seeing that poll float around that says something like 90% of Natives don’t care about the name Redskins but some leftist types are saying it was a flawed poll. Just curious what the reality of it is since I hardly interact with any of the tribes.
Based Redskin here, I'm laughing that THIS is what got them to finally do it. Also I'd say I'm upset because it won't be the same rivalry between the Dallas Cowboys and the Washington white people, but I stopped watching NFL a while back.
NFL should probably void Nike's license since I doubt the contract contains provisions for excluding one team. But since we've entered an age where the mob rules and law only exists to keep whitey in line they probably won't.
When will people stop being offended for other people?
I would love to know if Nike is in violation of their contract with the NFL or if it truly is within their contractual rights to hold this over the Redskins organization.
NFL peaked in the 90’s and early 2000’s. Done watching ungrateful & arrogant players get rich off playing a sport with more flags and commercial breaks than plays. Especially when it’s played in a country the majority of them piss on even though it allowed them to rise to the level they did in the first place. I’m damn over it. #UFC
My favorite team when I was younger. I have not watched since Mark Rypien was slinging the ball in 1991. Dexter Manley, Charles Mann. Art Monk, Gary Clark, Darrell green, #44 John Riggins. The 80's hogs were so fun to watch. Man I miss the old days of America.
My dad tuned out after Kaepernick. I'm out this season too. I've heard talk of about 10 different things they plan to do to piss me off. If even one of those is true, they don't deserve my eyes on the screen.
If they learn the hard way from a ratings crash and go back to the way it was before, with no kneeling tolerated, I'll reward common sense and watch again.
Why would anyone watch that crap NFL anyway.

What's next? The New Somalia Vikings burn down their city and get a participation ring?
I stopped watching when the kneeling started and gave them 5 years to bankruptcy if it kept going. 4 full seasons of boycott under my belt later...
The games gonna die because of concussions and pussies regardless of interest
The NFL can suck it. I hope you queers enjoyed being millionaires. Shoulda just shut up and took the money.
Catching a ball and earning millions gives people a false sense of hubris and intellect.
Enjoyed is right. The average sports star ends up broke a couple years after they retire.
Only 'far right' crazy I knew was a guy that just ranted about "Mexicans and niggers" all the time. He wouldn't do shit of course.
Quit the job we were on when I corrected him that Israel has not been in existence "for 100 years" and left like a whiny teenager.
He was in his fifties.
Yeah and before that at a Mayhem concert saw what I suspect was skinheads, maybe 5 or 6.
So in total, 6 to 7 "all show no go" 'far right' crazies in my entire Life whose greatest offense, had been words.

They won't stop there. Chiefs, Braves, Patriots, Raiders, Buccaneers, etc... are going to be next.
Leftists are scumbags.
The Cowboys and Eagles, too.
The Vikings celebrate White identity! Ban the Vikings!
Yeah they're in for a rude awakening!
The tanked ratings the last few seasons was NOTHING!
It's going to be a glorious season! First time I've looked forward to a season opener in AGES!

why not just change the name to a local tribe and keep everything else the same. or not local. change it to whatever tribe will partner with you.
I mean I personally like the name "Redskins". Fucking reclaiming that shit yo.

stopped watching NFL games over two seasons ago. I stopped buying Nike products two years ago. Nothing of value was lost.
My dad is talking about getting his raiders tattoo filled in. They are fucked.
I always disliked the NFL because it had a monopoly on football. Its never a good thing for a company to have that much power.
How is Nike threatening to no longer sell Redskins merch until they change their name not extortion?
The Redskins could find another manufacturer in the United States and milk this publicity to unprecedented sales.
The better question is, how come the NFL hasnt dropped Nike for using slave labor?
They should keep the name and change the image on the helmets to a baby’s behind being spanked. Problem solved
I would have also accepted "pacifier"
I made this suggestion a few days ago.
Honestly, I don't give a shit if they change the name or no, I been done with the NFL.
that's pretty good.

Enjoy that black National anthem lol
I am SOFA KING with you on this pede.
I'm not watching a single NFL game this year. Watch me
I'm not wasting my time watching these fools disrespect the country.
My favorite team when I was younger. I have not watched since Mark Rypien was slinging the ball in 1991. Dexter Manley, Charles Mann. Art Monk, Gary Clark, Darrell green, #44 John Riggins. The 80's hogs were so fun to watch. Man I miss the old days of America.
Me too.
May I introduce you to rugby?
Let's name it the whiteskins! Oh that's white supremacy... But Redskins is about marginalizing? So heads we lose tails you win, huh?
Part of me is still hoping Vince McMahon gets the XFL off the ground, everything was going great until the pandemic happened.
Stopped watching once the kneeling began. Honestly would have to think hard who won the SBs since. And I won't.
Change all the names. With each change they lose brand equity and those silly fans who still watch are one step further away from their old “team”.
I sure can’t wait to see all these millionaires go broke for their behavior.
Can the teams be sued over the mental anguish of being sold racist team apparel?
Its not going to end with the Skins. I can conceivably see more teams scrutinized.
Chiefs, Browns, Cowboys, Patriots, Saints are next. Only teams safe will be those named after animals.
Over in MLB, Braves are most certainly next.
How about the Washington Buttfuckers?
I won't even talk sports with friends anymore. Don't waste my time.
My dad tuned out after Kaepernick. I'm out this season too. I've heard talk of about 10 different things they plan to do to piss me off. If even one of those is true, they don't deserve my eyes on the screen.

Glad I never got into football
They should change their name to the Child Laborers. Nike would love it.
