I still think it will be the Griffins.

Redskins say there’s no connection to “Bravehearts” trademark | ProFootballTalk

Dafuq is a griffin? BTW, "what a world we live in" is right, I mean who the hell takes TMZ as a credible news source?

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

I hope they never win another game if they change the name.

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

They should just change it to the "skins"

The Senators. Inept, criminal, and dysfunctional. Perfect name for a Snyder-owned team.

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

I like that the Skins.

This issue is sofa king we tar ed

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

Brave Heats? But TMZ, it say Brave Hearts.

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

This came from TMZ

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

The whole issue is TMZ worthy at best.

How about a team honoring 1st responders say
the "Engine Reds".

I still like the Washington Grumpy Cats.

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

How about...

The Washington Assault.

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

One thing to consider in all of this is that there is only 1 Indian tribe stirring the pot here. I heard an interview with a Coushatta (I think) tribe member yesterday who said that he had no problem whatsoever with the name.

I call it a money grab.

And btw, I am 1/8th American Indian but look more like my French roots with an Italian nose. So I can't relate.

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

I've read polls that indicate about 3% of Native Americans find the name offensive.

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

The filing was from a group that has nothing to do with the NFL.

The NFL is not going to let anyone other than the NFL hold a trade marked team name.

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

... I got an email the other day suggesting they be renamed the "Foreskins" in honor of all the d*ckheads in WashDC ... there was a cute little picture attached, but I didn't think it was suitable for posting, :mrgreen:.

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

Theirs this team that plays basball in Atlanta called the Braves. Why not the Braves.

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

just a little bit worse:

Y! SPORTS

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

Braves is a little different than skin tone.
Personally, if there was a team that represented my skin color that chose that name because of a history of strength, courage and toughness, I'd not only be fine with it, I'd be proud of it.

Everybody wants to be offended. Everybody wants to feel persecuted. Everybody wants to shame others for their beliefs. Everybody wants to force others to believe as they do because if they don't, they are racist or narrow-minded.
The PC movement is offensive to me but that makes me narrow-minded. :rolleyes:

Anyway, say that they change the name to Bravehearts. Can't you reasonably assume that some Scottish people would be offended that an NFL team in the USA would be using their biggest hero as their mascot?

This whole thing is silly.

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

I hear the vast majority of Redskins are offended by the name Washington.

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

Its purely subjective garbage...

Some people are offended by "Rajun Cajun". Should UL have to go back to the BullDog?

To see Saints fans agreeing is actually laughable. You do realize 'Saint' is a christian term. Where is the atheist outrage?

So as I understand it "Red Skin" is bad but "Red Men" is good?

Redmen

Bedford Road Collegiate Redmen (Saskatoon, Saskatchewan)
Cedar High School Redmen (Cedar City, Utah)
Killingly High School Redmen (Killingly, CT)
Parma Senior High School Redmen (Parma, Ohio)
Rock Hill High School (Ironton, Ohio)
Smith Center High School Redmen, (Smith Center, Kansas)
Tewksbury Memorial High School Redmen (Tewksbury, Massachusetts)
Woonsocket High School Redmen (Woonsocket, South Dakota)
Marquette Senior High School Redmen (Marquette, Michigan)

Why go after only the NFL?

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

As a christian, should I be offended that an NFL team is minimizing what the christian saints have accomplished for their faith? We're talking true persecution and martyrs dying for their passion.

Stop the madness!

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

... I read that article ... now that is genuinely offensive ...

... and I still maintain that if the Redskins are forced to change their name, I'm lobbying for that little leprechaun to come off the Lucky Charms box ... breakfast will never be the same, :neutral:.

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

I hope they drop Washington from the team name.

Redskins is just fine.

Re: Washington Braveheats??
 

FINALLY!!! Something Choupique and I can agree on. It only took four years.
