Representatives of the Oneida Indian Nation, a group that believes the Washington Redskins name is offensive and would like it to be changed, met with NFL officials Wednesday. NFL senior vice president Adolpho Birch and executive vice presidents Jeff Pash and Paul Hicks spoke on behalf of the league for a little more than an hour at the league office in New York. Source: NFL.com Lddbck's Take: They are one of 556 Native American Nations with only 1000 members. Now why should Snyder make a change when the other 555 Nations don't seem to care?
Re: Washington Redskins Now that would be classic. Snyder changes the name to the Washington R-Words. I'm down with that.
re: Oneida Nation & NFL Meet About Washington Redskins Name Free press... Looks like they should be thanking Snyder.
re: Oneida Nation & NFL Meet About Washington Redskins Name well,this butthole repping the the nation is NOT even a legitimate member of the tribe.he and his partners run a company that runs gaming casino's on tribal land and just before bob"butthole" costas made his little rant,these guys signed some sort of big money contract with a conglomorate of general electric which is owned by,NBC.
If 99% of people don't care why should you wield to the 1%? Snyder won't change it and frankly I can't see how he is in the wrong?
This is why Snyder went from my bottom 5 douchebag owners to favorite owner for telling the president, all the other douchebags in DC jockeying for votes and bleeding heart liberals all over the planet to eat crap. He's not wrong and I hope he stands his ground.
