White man stole their land because of the riches they knew were in the land. Anyways…WTF with this topic? I'm waiting for this topic and the uniform color in Brazil to come full circle as to why it's not going to be Hurts fault if something goes bad. That's usually the end game.

June 3, 20242 yr My 2 cents. 1. Not worried about the QBs in OTAs... it's not real football. 2. The easy solution to me for Washington was always just to change their name to " Skins" ..middle of the road solution and that's what everyone calls them anyway. 3. The " green" ban in the stadium in Brazil. Again...I'll ask this obvious question. What color does their rival team where when they play inside that stadium? Obviously they wear green. I don't think the ban is for the players. I think the issue will be for everyone in the stands etc. It's more of an ironic situation. Of course the certain poster on here ...well, I'll leave that alone. Idk... if the rival soccer team can't wear their colors...do they play in their underwear? Why isn't this obvious, even from the left field bleachers?

Or really just anything happens bad at all …by any player….turns into being Blamed on Hurts.

The Washington Football Team says it will no longer make contributions to Original Americans Foundation, which was founded by Daniel Snyder. Sounds like this is the second attempt to buy Native American support.
June 3, 20242 yr Less than four years after that announcement, the Original Americans Foundation was nearly a million dollars in the red. According to IRS filings, Washington’s contributions to the fund had declined from $5 million in fiscal 2015 to $500,000 in 2018. Even with declining contributions, salaries and operating expenses remained constant at over $750,000 per year. By fiscal 2018, grants to Native American communities had dwindled to barely 7 percent of the charity’s initial grants, and by fiscal 2019, that number had zeroed out entirely.

Nothing presumed at all... just usually when you go off on a subject nobody cares about ... some how it spins around Hurts. Tell us....what are the local favorite foods down there in San Paulo...fashion trends, the local live entertainment scene. Will they sell beer at the stadium? We all need to know. As Col. Jessip said..." what are you gonna ask me now, my favorite color"

Point taken,however whatever decisions are made are the owners not WOKE fans who tell the team what they HAVE to do. Maybe I play this game and tell the NFL "never again until they drop the green ban" This is our team,green is our color and I don't need international approval to wear green on an AMERICAN sports team. I expect to stand for the Brazillian anthem even if they don't play the US anthem. It's about respect,not being told how we operate our team. Those are Luries calls to make,but banning a color is beyond immature as 2 nations in a "business contract". if this was not stipulated in said contract both teams should refuse to play and play in a more "color friendly" venue. I imagine since green is banned the field will be blue? Or red? or brown? pink? Maybe this seems trivial to you,that's fine,but somewhere,sometime someday someone needs to stand against the virtual crybabies. The 1 or 2% that force garbage on everyone else. And so I will stand,alone if need be. I'm used to and ok with that

It was a sign of respect(which you fail to grasp). Just like many team names. The packers-respect for those that work that industry. ND Fighting Irish-respect for the struggle of the Irish(who were actually the first SLAVES) NE Patriots-respect for Patriotic Americans(originally the BOSTON Patriots so if I am from the south should I be offended???). Some teams are named to show strength such as the RAIDERS or strong animals in nature(Panthers,Lions,Eagles, Bears, Dolphins etc) And this is just the NFL. Anyway back to football. I will call them the WUSS(because they caved to left wing pressure) until they change back. If they never do,they will remain the WUSS in my terminology because it's MY terminology and you have no say in that. Sell the team to the real indians and let them name then whatever they want,but as you see MOST want it changed back,so argue with the indians

Not even close. So gullible that you just go along with such low hanging fruit of these super rich owners throwing money at struggling poor people.

They can't dictate the colors of the players ....lol.
