This is something I've been up-to-date, I feel that the name should roll back. Thoughts?

Re: Washington Name Change.....AGAIN
As a long time fan and resident of the area, with some Rappahanock lineage. I was bothered that it was changed from the previous name, Redskins. However, I understood why so many were against it. Just as many things in this country start honorably or with positive meanings. Circumstances and humanity at its worst causes things to turn. I am ok now, with the name change, but it should have been something that still honored Native Americans. I would have been ok with Red Tails since a lot of Tuskegee Airman were from the area. A relative of mine being one of them.

Re: Washington Name Change.....AGAIN
First. Please do not disrespect this post about the Washington Redskins, Football Team, or Commanders by even hinting at that club of whatever in Dallas....lol
I have Cherokee and Rappahanock lineage. Born and raised in DC knowing the song before I learned my alphabet. I know the history of the word Redskin and the demeaning nature of the word redskin. I would have preferred the name stayed the same, but understood in this environment, the discussion and issue. I don't like Commanders as a name. I liked even less getting an email as a Veteran who was or is a season ticket holder saying you changed the name to honor us. That's some BS. Redtails would have been a better alternative. I had the opportunity to meet a number of the Tuskegee Airman that retired in the area.
Lastly. Don't really care if the owner changes it or not. I don't make a profit from it. I'm going to root for my team regardless. I am going to be bothered with my team when they lose and very happy when they win. Just my 1/1000 of an A$.
