The Washington Redskins Finally Drop Offensive Name

[karpenter]

Dan Snyder, owner of The Washington Redskins,
has announced that the team is dropping "Washington " from the team name,
and it will henceforth be simply known as, "The Redskins".
It was reported that he finds the word 'Washington' imparts a negative image of poor leadership, mismanagement, corruption, cheating, lying, and graft, and is not a fitting role-model for fans of football .

From someone who is a fan of the team - you just took 10 years off my life reading that headline.

NOT FUNNY!!!!!!!

Good joke though someone posted this a while back. Since I'm terrible with elapsed time I couldn't tell you if it was a month ago or a year ago.
