Discussion: Fox Panelist: Washington Redskins' Name Is A 'Term Of Respect' (VIDEO)

Discussion for article #223154

If that’s true, I say Alabama’s been the Crimson Tide long enough. We need to give them a team name that respects Southern culture.

The “Alabama White Trash!”

Think of the possibilities. Squirrel-brain burgoo and pork rinds at the food court. They could have a '73 Chevy pickup with Tea Party banners drive around the field after a touchdown.Their mascot could be some babe with tattoos, and her teeth blacked out.

It could work, ya know?

The sad thing is, this actually touches on a very important issue: How do we define what society considers an offensive name? Is there a threshold of how many people find it offensive, or do we somehow just know it when we see it?

But because it’s the Fox clown show dealing with this, they don’t deserve the assumption of good faith. They deserve to be laughed at, like everything else they do.

I’d like to cordially invite Mr. Hegseth to accompany me to my local watering hole on the eastern edge of the Kiowa-Comanche-Apache Reservation and let him greet my neighbors with his notion of a term of respect.

I show my respect for the anti-American, right wing, scumbags, by calling them defective gene pool extremists

How long has there been a show called “Outnumbered”? And how long have they been using the symbol “Out#”?
This is absolutely classic and perfectly demonstrates how out of touch conservatives are. Maybe someone at the FoxNews marketing conference table under 70 noticed that the “#” symbol has been showing up on the moving picture box more frequently, so he suggested that FoxNews try to connect with the young hip kids and incorporate that symbol into their on-screen graphics.
“Yeah,” said the only other participant at the table under 70. "I too have noticed that the number sign is popular with the kids today. Let’s use it as a shorthand version of “Outnumbered”.
“All in favor?”

Edit: I just found the answer to my own question. The show premiered just under one month ago.
Edit 2: I see. It’s supposed to be like The View. It features a panel of four women. Yeah, outreach with women. And they’ve got pretty solid credentials, like Townhall, Breitbart, Fox Business News, etc. Yeah, outreach with women. Yeah, that’s the ticket.

There was also a CNN/NY TImes/NASA poll that found that over 99% of Americans have no idea who Pete Hegseth is. Nearly 100% wondered why he has an opinion on anything.

If FOX endorses something, you know it’s complete bullshit.

Jesus fuck, it’s no wonder Greg Garret became a drunken pillhead.

This makes perfect sense. And that small town sherrif in NH who called POTUS a nigger just meant it as a term of respect, harkening back to the days when black folks did an honest day’s work pickin’ cotton.

Jonathan Banks says to change the name. So change the name!

Chris Rock already established the only necessary response to this nonsense five or ten years ago in his stand-up material. (I’ll edit, in case there’s a nanny filter on this list.)

ROCK: “The Washington Redskins? That’s like having a team called The New York Ni@@ers!”

Another product of Minnesota’s 6th Congressional District. Beside Michele Bachmann.

Where was Fux news all this time, if they were around back in the 60’s I’d probably see their way.(sarc) To deny peoples rights to food, education, housing, and a way to feed themselves and their families, and feel good about it? Didn’t the Romans(Jew) have a 2 tiered society too? You know the ones that have and the ones that don’t(including the ones that think they’re one of them?

This is what happens when the “athlete pool” consists of people paid enough money so that they will ignore that FOX is all about and.

(a) Play NFL games

(b) Comment about NFL games

People like Michael Strahan know that if he were to state that FOX is a racist propaganda outlet (e.g. the truth), he would be removed and another person inserted in his place.

People like Richard Sherman (and I like Richard) know that if he were to orchestrate a strike to refuse to play in any NFL game broadcast televised by FOX until it stop broadcasting lies, the NFL would get other players would run and jump and kick and bash and do all the other good stuff they do in the NFL.

Money talks, doesn’t it?

You can’t fix stupid…you can beat the living day lights out of stupid…but that only makes your arms tired…

I think it’s encouraging that the white majority doesn’t find “redskins” offensive. But don’t you wonder how the redskins feel?
