There’s a Washington football bombshell coming and it’s not about the name

The removal of a racist nickname won’t end Daniel Snyder’s problems.

Not long after the Washington owner announced that his team would no longer be known as the Redskins, a series of cryptic tweets from local reporters emerged, warning of an imminent bombshell set to shake the franchise to its core.

“The warped and toxic culture of the Washington Football Team is about to be exposed in a sickening fashion . . . Again,” wrote CBS’ Jason La Canfora, a former team beat reporter.  .  .  .

Washington Post story supposed to hit the streets tomorrow.

Hopefully, they will hire some scouts who know how to draft.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

It may well be that Snyder sells out... He is a very brand conscious businessman and my guess is he refuses to change the name but his "partners" are going to force him out and change the name.  The Redskins revenue has been dropping since this whole kneeling thing started and a name change will really do damage.

Good. Maybe they can use the stadium for rioter roundups like the '60s.

Well, certainly changing the name of the Redskins will have an immediate and profound effect on the lives of Indians...er....native Americans across the country.
