I'm not a fan of the logo on the helmet, but Warriors is really not that bad...

I like Warriors as well. Those colors look too much like the Chiefs though. How about the Washington Griffins? :D

I know, WTF. That's not even the right red and yellow! Even worse, look at it closely -- the army guy has Chinese eyes!

Al McGuire, coach, Marquette Warriors, 1976 NCAA Basketball Champions...now the Golden Eagles.
Warriors, it ain't gonna happen.

Well, I am Nordic. Blonde, blue eyes and built like a brick house.
I then take offense at the team name Vikings.

How about the Washington Librels or better yet everyone gets off there high horse and it stays the Redskins

Re: Washington Warriors?
 
I've been to war numerous times and am therefore offended by the term "Warrior". I also am offended by taxes and are therefore offended by the city's name of "Washington". Can we just call them the "Virginia/Maryland Humans" and call it a day? Actually, "Virginia" kind of resembles "vagina" in its spelling so now I've offended myself and several others.

Barry from MS 10-08-2013 04:41 PM

Re: Washington Warriors?
 
The mascot "Saints" is also offensive and exclusive of all persons. Organized religion has monopolized granting the "Saint" status to only those of virtue. What the ----? How come I can't be a "Saint"? It's offensive.

But in all seriousness, exactly when/where will the PC end?

Every time this is discussed, the silly comments, bad analogies, and self-serving outrage surfaces.

Since Snyder owns the team, and to draw a valid comparison, I wonder how The Danny would like the name The Washington Kikes.

The Redskins

Re: Washington Warriors?
 
And as the PC hippies run around claiming its racist, the fact of the matter is that the logo was a collaborative effort that included an Indian... Only the Oneida Indian Nation in New York is raising hell over this.. All 1000+/- of them..

This is not about a name or a logo, this is about George Preston Marshall being a known racist. He died in 1969... Let it go.

Who's idea are these logos/name changes anyway? If it ain't the owner of the Redskins, seems kinda' pointless, IMO ... and anyway, if a Redskin name change gets pushed through, I'm Irish & I want that fricken' leprechaun off the Lucky Charms box, :lol:.

How about the Wahington Traitorous Bastards Who Have Never Worked A Day In Thier Lives And Mooch Off Other Peoples Money And Have Driven This Once Mighty Country Into The Ditch Since We are Quickly Becoming A Third World County.

That would truly represent the people who work in Washington DC.

Probably couldn't get it to fit on the helmets though.

And of course if you're a Wahington Traitorous Bastards Who Have Never Worked A Day In Thier Lives And Mooch Off Other Peoples Money And Have Driven This Once Mighty Country Into The Ditch Since We are Quickly Becoming A Third World County fan, you could make someone else who actually works for a living pay for your season tickets. :p

Anyways, if Native Americans are offended so be it. Its not their fault they got wiped out to a point of near extinction by intruders. I hate to see the name changed, but if its a derogatory term I think the want for change is justified. I always thought they were the redskins because of the reddish color of some Native Americans. Evidently i was wrong.

As long as this fixes all the wrongs the native Americans have faced in the past... http://smileys.on-my-web.com/reposit...tongue-001.gif

Re: Washington Warriors?
 
If they change the redskins name then all the other teams, colleges, highschools and any other team named after some form of Native American needs to change their name. Either they all have it or no one does .....

See how stupid that sounds, just like this argument. Why won't this non issue just go away. As long as the owner doesn't care, the name sticks and if you don't like that get a helmet cause life sucks

They've already changed the name of the school where my wife went to college. The Northeast Indians are now the University of Louisiana at Monroe (ULM) Warhawks. It pissed me off.

Re: Washington Warriors?
 
ULM's name change is bull, same goes for St John's redmen to red storm seriously .... sure there is more just can't think of them. The way its going, how long before the Saints become the gators, jazz, parade, IDK just pick another part of New Orelans culture and run with it

RaginCajun83 10-10-2013 03:06 PM

Re: Washington Warriors?
 
Ole Miss better change their name, now I'm offended :rolleyes:

B005TED 10-10-2013 03:17 PM

Re: Washington Warriors?
 
Unofficially they have, the Colonel has not been their logo for years now. Its just been the red script "Ole Miss". The directors of the school want the change but the student body has to vote on a change and don't want it haha.

At least that's what I've been told by a cousin that is in school there.

I am tired of the term "native American" being used exclusively for indians. My ancestors are not from here but I sure as hell am, and like most people I work and pay taxes. I don't live off of some government trust fund, and I don't leech off of idiots who gamble all their money away at these casino's that certain indians own.

But you know what? There is no law against what Indians are doing, so we just let them be. Why then do the rest of us have to act like we don't belong here, and everything we do requires permission from the "native american" community? I'm not at all hurt by what they do, I simply find those who complain about everything to be hypocritical.

Quit feeling sorry for yourselves over something that never happened to you. Do you realize that long before there were black slaves and Pilgrims vs. Indians, there people of all colors being tortured, enslaved and killed over their faith, lack of wealth, or just because some crazy emperor wanted to entertain himself by pitting humans against ravenous animals?

I don't feel sorry for myself because of what my ancestors went through. Why should anyone else? Get over it.
