It's about time. People need to grow up and stop supporting racial slurs as "tradition".
People need to grow up and stop concerning themselves with what teams are named.
It's pretty annoying that butthurt people always have to throw themselves in your face when you're trying to enjoy yourself. Oh my god, go the **** away butthurt tribe. No one wants to deal with your **** right now.
There is no game tonight.....
[h=1]Anti-Redskins commercial to air during NBA Finals[/h] Posted by Michael David Smith on June 10, 2014, 9:00 AM EDT
Getty ImagesOpponents of the name of the Washington Redskins will air their message before a large audience of sports fans tonight.
The Washington Post reports that the Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation, a tribe based in California, has paid for a 60-second anti-Redskins commercial to run during halftime of tonight’s NBA Finals game. The ad will run in Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles, New York, Sacramento, San Francisco and Washington, and the tribe said it made a “significant investment” to purchase the air time.
The commercial begins with a long montage of names and labels that Native Americans call themselves, like “proud” and “forgotten,” “Navajo” and “Blackfoot,” “patriot” and “soldier,” “Jim Thorpe” and “Billy Mills.” It ends with the narrator saying, “Native Americans call themselves many things. The one thing they don’t” and then an image of a Redskins helmet.
A longer version of the ad was posted on YouTube just before the Super Bowl and has been viewed nearly 2 million times.

How does Washington DC's team changing its name reduce your enjoyment?
Is that like gays marrying reducing ones marriage, or gays parading reducing ones manliness?
I was referring to the commercial that is just some butthurt tribe that needs something else to do.
And how many billion have been spent on the "native American" in the last 10 decades?Because not caring about racism is the grown up thing to do. *snicker*
Where'd you learn that?

And that excuses racism?
Or do you object, like others, because you're a VICTIM of evil tribes ruining your TV enjoyment with commercials?
Really?

Law, how many laws have passed giving the native Americans tax breaks, grants, loans, reparations, land etc etc.So you're not a victim like Henrin? That poor guy has the whole game ruined when he sees an anti-racism commercial. I hope he gets Tivo and stops suffering so horribly.
It's terrible what those tribes are doing to him. There oughta be a law!

You equate anger with "tired of too many easily butt hurt cry babies".So what?
That causes anti-racist commercials to make you angry?

By what criteria is the name racist?
