Darn it, Redskins.

The Federal Communications Commission, an independent government agency that regulates radio and television broadcasts, is considering whether to fine and punish broadcasters for using the Washington Redskins nickname

[DeathFromAbove1979]

It won't happen.

Why not?

Publicity Stunts like this won't work.  If you believe in your cause, confront your naysayers.

Can't he watch a game with his bro?

DFA basically trying to get invited into snyder's private box by publicly defending him on the 930 forums.  i say declare yourself from native american-descent and see how far this thing goes.

[DeathFromAbove1979]

Not at all defending him. Just asking a question.

Because, unless I am missing something, its not his "bro." If dan Snyder and this gentleman were schoolyard chums 40 years ago and have kept a long, vibrant friendship, then sure. When it is clearly not someone Dan Snyder is actually friends with -- because, you know, I don't think alot of team owners supply lists of job titles for their visiting friends to their broadcast partners so that can just COINCIDENTALLY get on TV -- it reeks of PR stunt.

[DeathFromAbove1979]

They're bros.

[heather]

The team is horrible, and they need to change the goddamn name already.  I can't justify my lifelong allegiance much longer.

Whenever I'm sitting with Larry Baer or Jed York and happen to get on TV, my name and job title aren't posted on the broadcast.

Apparently you're not "bros" then. Bros make sure broadcast partners hype bros, bro.
