BREAKING: Court rules against Redskins
|
BREAKING: Court rules against Redskins As first reported by the Washington Post, the Washington Redskins lost a major battle on Wednesday. U.S. District Court Judge Gerald Bruce Lee upheld the ruling of the Federal Trademark Trail and Appeal Board, which deemed the team’s name offensive to Native Americans making it ineligible under the Lanham Act for status in the federal trademark registry. http://was.247sports.com/Bolt/BREAKING-C...s-38106585 ![]() We show less advertisements to registered users.

Just change it to Washington Indians, Washington Warriors, or something similar. Then they can keep the logo or do whatever. It's not going to get any quieter with today's sensitive and social media driven society. It's a name, they should just change it and get it over with. Dan Snyder is a snooty snob though so this should get interesting.
Washington Hogs imo. Keep the color scheme, just change the name and the logo. I can't think of a more perfect solution.

Quote:We're realizing that we shouldn't be using racial slurs as the names of our sports teams? When did this happen and why was it "OK" for so many years earlier, and then all of a sudden, someone decides they are offended by a team name, and then there is a controversy about said name?
I survived the Gus Bradley Error.

This is something that's been stewing for a long time now.
It's just more proof that we as a country are becoming huge cowards. Afraid of our shadows, afraid of everything.
Founding fathers are spinning in their graves right now screaming "why aren't the people starting a revolution." Sorry George, we are too scared.
Bruce Allen says team is “convinced” it will win trademark figh
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/201...mark-fight Considering the track record of the current Supreme Court, I don't have the confidence that Bruce Allen has if this case is decided by the current Supreme Court or anything close to it.

I'm thinking about getting a lawsuit together. I noticed that the Mars Candy Company is full of discrimination. They have yellow, brown and red M&M's but no white ones..
It's sickening..
Since when did the Judicial branch become the end all be all part of the government anyway?
Also... why are we all okay with the Supreme Court taking away the rights of states to govern themselves? There was a war that happened in this country because of the government taking away individual states' rights..... We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!
