So now Fedex is requesting that the Washington

Ad Week

A group of politically oriented investment firms have written to PepsiCo, FedEx and Nike asking them to end their sponsorship and advertising relationships with the Washington Redskins over the NFL club's nickname, Adweek reported

Haven't we been over this before?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

So many times. The FSU seminoles got endorsed by the tribe


Jul 3, 2020, 8:34 AM

Last time they were under fire.

The timing is right to take down whatever they want. When I say they, I mean the wacky twitter hit mob.

As a fan of the Skins, I am fully supportive of a name change as long as it is a package deal with an ownership change.

Lol, I’m 56 and as a young kid I pulled for the Redskins and the Cowboys. I’m not sure if anyone else has ever done that.

I vote for Russet or Yukon Gold

Redskins are only good for potato salad.

I like red skinned early taters seasoned and grilled too.

Maybe they could just change their logo to a potato.

Or how about an Indigenous Person from Idaho holding up a redskin potato?

(Insert sarcasm emoji here.)

This is ridiculously long overdue. Snyder has been able to beat back prior name-change efforts but he probably loses this time.

I agree. Their name is horrible.


Jul 2, 2020, 8:52 PM

Potomac River Redskins?

I have no idea how Redskins (which is literally a slur)


Jul 2, 2020, 10:01 PM

Survived this long while other more respectable Native American names have been forced to change long ago

Jul 2, 2020, 10:15 PM

Back in the day when I used to actually watch some NFL, a friend of mine used to call them the Washington Foreskins. I thought it was pretty appropriate.

Go Tigers!!!

Call themselves the Washington Sentinels.

Guess the Atlanta Braves are next, wonder if they will go back after the FSU Seminoles?

Let’s cancel it all. I’m part Irish and terribly offended by the ND mascot. I replied to a post a while back saying the Statue of Liberty and Mount Rushmore would have to go. Got a “ha ha ha” reply. Whelp? But seriously, the Redskins nickname is on a different level than Braves and Seminoles.

The Washington Snowflakes. That works.


Jul 3, 2020, 8:47 AM

Once again, white liberals telling Native Americans what they should be offended by. Hey, why not? They (white liberals) have already hijacked BLM.

The Washington Powhatans.

Well Native Americans did own slaves


Jul 3, 2020, 2:27 PM

And some tribes refused to free them even after the Emancipation Proclamation.
