Probably the most public example of American racism is ending its long run. The Washington franchise is finally going to ditch the "redskins" name for an as yet to be announced replacement. It seems like a no brainer but the NFL is probably the best example of plantation culture and getting rich white guys to do something they don't want to do is difficult.
The fact is that a rebranding will create massive sales of new merchandise both from the usual followers of the team and from a new segment who would not have purchased anything with such an offensive theme.

Possible replacements:
-- Redscalps
-- Tomahawks
-- Wigwams


Or just what everybody else calls them: The Washington Losers". They haven't been good since the 80s.

This has been a contentious issue since the 1960s. How can change take this long?

"Plantation culture :lol: :lol: :lol: Oh fer sure dude, at a starting salary of $610,000 for a first year rookie to play a 4 month season with 2 months of training camp sure sounds like "plantation culture" to me. :lol: :lol:

Should be fun. I think I'll swing by FedEx and catch a couple of Washington Whatevers games when they start having live attendance again, just to watch the belligerent butthurts sporting all their Redskins gear and looking for trouble, and all the sensitive snowflakes providing it.

Be a lot more fun than the games.
