Conspiracy me feels like Nike or the NFL had a button that if something happens then something else will happen (examples in other sports Saints super bowl and 2016 NBA finals) but this is an example perfect time to do it (wouldn’t be surprised if they got things in the vault) the world on pause, Season delayed, Factories open, they will make a profit, the social cache rises, a new team history, and more


Wild DC gotta change another team name for being too:merchant:


Nike I believe is still in charge of the MLB uniforms and they ain’t say shyt about the Cleveland Indians
Yep the Indians are on the clock as well. I need to do some research but I also keep hearing that the majority of Nike shyt is made in sweatshops. They're not free from judgement either

That Nike power is insane. They did in 1 day what people have been trying to get done for like a decade and a half.
I think it was FedEx, Pepsi, and company that got this in motion. Nike is actually doing kinda bad right now.

-as for the team name just go the old school baseball route.. The Washington Senators. That makes the most sense imo

They’d probably have to buy the trademark.


Cleveland Indians discussing changing their name as well.

As I have said it isn't just about the name it is everything that has any connection with Native Americans, They want the Indians, Braves, Seminoles and any other team with a native name or theme to change their name and logo, even if they are doing it in an honoring and respectable way.

It is what it is I guess.:manny:

Another thing.. Native Americans need to stay on code. I don't know if they're real true Indian/Native American or not but there's too much, "The name doesn't bother me one bit" quotes on social media and whatnot. Cut all that white acceptance out and stay united. They don't owe white people shyt!

I'm 43 and a lifelong Skins fan. I saw them win 3 super bowls in real time and have suffered through the sub-mediocrity of the Snyder Era for the last 20 years. I am admittedly selfish and don't want the name to change for my own ignorant ass reasons, but I realize how ass backwards it is, regardless of this "cancel" climate. I am not native, I have no say in the fukking matter. It's inevitable that the name is going to be changed Daniel. You will not weather this storm jew.

Just check the redskins instagram page and it’s just the Shorties who are saying the name don’t offend him the older natives are saying the need to change the name ASAP and you got cacs who claim to have Native American in their blood saying don’t change the name :mjlol:
