30 Alternative Names For The Washington Redskins

Screen Shot 2014-06-19 at 2.13.50 PM

After 82 years in the league, the Washington Redskins are doing the most ignorant thing possible–they’re insisting on keeping the name that no one complained about for decades.

That’s right, I’ll give you a moment to reel in from the shock. This politically correct bullshit is getting really old, and if all these “offensive” team names (also including the Cleveland Indians, Atlanta Braves, etc.) were REALLY causing damage to society, someone would have done something about them years and years ago. America is going soft and no one wants to solve the real problems, just the ones they can blame on someone else, but I digress.

An all out assault on the Redskins’ name has begun, and I like to prepare for worst case scenarios. That said, we should give the D.C. politicians lashing out against the name what they deserve and change the Redskins to something that really captures the essence of what the rest of America actually thinks about the nation’s capital.

Here are a few ideas:

  1. The Washington Bureaucrats
  2. The Washington Scandals
  3. The Washington Lost Emails
  4. The Washington Cover Ups
  5. The Washington Taxpayer-Funded Pension Plans
  6. The Washington Leeches
  7. The Washington Golf Trips
  8. The Washington Drones
  9. The Washington Tax Cheats
  10. The Washington Loopholes
  11. The Washington Mistresses
  12. The Washington Regulators
  13. The Washington Pork Barrels
  14. The Washington Teleprompters
  15. The Washington Liars
  16. The Washington Panderers
  17. The Washington Spenders
  18. The Washington Failures
  19. The Washington Spies
  20. The Washington Hackers
  21. The Washington Departments
  22. The Washington Lobbyists
  23. The Washington Hookers
  24. The Washington Hypocrites
  25. The Washington Snowdens
  26. The Washington Interns
  27. The Washington Payoffs
  28. The Washington Kickbacks
  29. The Washington Investigators
  30. The Washington Schmucks

Alternatively, if Dan Snyder really wants to piss off these time and money wasting politicians, he can just sell the team to some certified jackass and let him rename it as he pleases–hopefully to something unpopular. That may just ruffle a few feathers.

    We might as well go ahead and change the Vikings name too. Don’t want any Norwegians getting offended.

    this is fucking stupid. I’m glad the top comment here supports the idea that racism isn’t justified just because measures weren’t taken in the past. Just because you’re in a fraternity doesn’t mean you have be asshole conservative. You can be politically conservative without being a shit head

    Liberals in this country love to manufacture faux outrage like this because it distracts people from asking questions like “how are we going to finance free healthcare for half the population?” or “Why did the president just trade 5 high value terrorist prisoners for a deserter without congressional approval?”

    It’s not that people didn’t have a problem with it. This change will not solve the ills of our society. However native Americans, the individuals who have the biggest right to complain have been the biggest losers in history. No other group of people can identify with the derogatory nature of the names than them. We mustn’t silence the peoples right to speak out just because they are few. However I still agree that there are bigger fish to fry.

    Fuck it, might as well change everything to unicorns and leprechauns. Don’t want PETA to get offended by our animal mascots. When will all this bull shit end.

    “Oklahoma” literally means “red people” in Choctaw, but you don’t see them trying to rename the entire state.
