WASHINGTON REDS?

      The Politically Correct Police (PCP) have recently been at their best, demanding that Daniel Snyder change the name of the team he owns, the Washington Redskins, claiming that "redskins" is a racial disparaging name.  In the context of a football team name though, it seems appropriate as it does just the opposite.  The mascot or name of a football team implies strength and courage, two very good qualities.  With all the conversation on how violent football is, I'm sure the liberal lobby would like the name changed to the Washington Pansies.  A simple solution that may satisfy BHO and his ilk would be to merely drop the word "Redskin", retain the "s" and the name now becomes the Washington Reds, most appropriate for the current regime and the PCP.  The indian warrior logo on the helmet could be replaced with a hammer and sickle and the team song "Hail to the Redskins" could be replaced with "Meadowland", the national anthem of the former USSR.
     All this begs the question as to what NFL or other sports team is next?  Continuing the indian thing, the Kansas City Chiefs and Chicago Black Hawks come to mind.  This would be easy.  Just drop the "i" from Chiefs and the team name becomes the Chefs. Combine this name change with banning what Moochelle considers unhealthy food choices either tailgating or at stadium concessions and libs who never ever watched a football game may become season ticket holders.  The team could advertise, "we've traded brats for beans, watch a game and eat healthy."  Moochele might even be invited to the opening game to throw out the opening game football.  The NHL's Blackhawks could just drop the hawk part of the name and they become the Chicago Blacks, emphasizing the contributions of blacks to ice hockey.  Maybe this would attract  a whole new segment of the population to become fans.  The indian logo on the Blackhawks jersey could be replaced with Jessie Jackson's head, a well recognized Chicago resident, or maybe Michael Jordan's head might be more appropriate as the Bulls and Blackhawks played in the same Chicago Stadium and Jordan  is certainly more loved than Jackson in the Chicago area.
      The PCP might also go after the New Orleans Saints as promoting religion.  Change the name to the New Orleans Mardi Gras.  The new fan chant would become "show us your tits", as the cheerleader parade up and down the sidelines.  A string of beads could be the team mascot or maybe a musical note like the St. Louis Blues hockey team.  "When the Saints Go Marching In" could be replaced with something by Maddona or Mylie Cyrus to which the Cheerleaders could booty dance.
      The Green Bay Packers and Pittsburgh Steelers should also beware.  Though the Packers name is derived from the local meat packing industry when the team was first organized more than 90 years ago, the PCP might consider this to now be a gun reference that might encourage "packing a gun".  The Steelers are obviously named for the now dwindling steel industry for which the city is famous.  Due to the poor education that our teacher unions and liberal school boards are providing, young people may confuse "steel" with "steal" and obviously this would encourage theft.
      There are many other sports teams, both profession and college, that may have a team name or mascot that is objectionable to the PCP.  Maybe Harry Reid and the libs in Congress could introduce a bill that would require all sports teams to change their name to either a flower, tree, fruit, or vegetabls.  How scary would it be if your team was about  to play the Notre Dame "Fighting Potatoes".
