GO LIONS

Go Packers!

I mean, they've given us plenty of pain over the years, but they're doing so poorly now that it's just about impossible to hate them. Of course it's a lot easier to not hate them now that we've broken their voodoo over us.

And also my brother is a 'Skins fan. Fucking traitor. But he's pretty bummed out nowadays, what with how Michigan is doing and then the 'Skins...



GO LIONS

A lot of Native Americans are conservative as eff. Over in Oklahoma and Texas I know plenty that are Michelle Bachmann (!!) lovers. They want their name changed, they should tell their fellow man to stop following crazy conservatives like her; they deserve it. Small sample size? Don't care. You should see the stuff they say.

I've lived in DC for 25 years now (barring a grad school stop in Boston and various overseas postings, like now), and I think the Federals is the only appropriate name. Change the color to Federal blue.

Of so many things

So the fans could still call them the 'skins.

I bet the Globetrotters could also beat them at football.

NCAI is the National Congress of American Indians, the grand organization that offers membership to and includes voting input from all tribes.

But if NCAI were to consider my own suggestion, it would unquestionably be Wasi'chu.

Actually I have a question also. I drive by various high schools and middle schools which have Indian-theme names. I hear nothing about this with regards to the Washington Redskins name conversation. Yesterday I was noodling on this as I watched the Oregon vs. Florida game. The Florida team is called the Seminoles. That is the name of a tribe of indians. Why is it that D.C. is the focus? Well, anyway, just wondering if anyone has any ideas on this. I confess to being aware only in a tangental way.

Washington has too but there was a sudden interest from the national media which I'm not sure where it came from.

Many college teams changed their names & mascots such as Syracuse and St. John's. Florida State got the OK from the local Seminole tribe to continue using the name.
