Why does the media suddenly have a problem with the "Redskins" name?

[delta]

And I aint from the DMV or a redskins stan, I aint defendin it. Just change em to the pigskins, 'skins, or sum shyt. If they dont... :


But some of these grown ass media members who are now saying "we won't say the R-word" have been coverin the NFL for 10, 20+ years, where was this courage before? aint shyt change.

Like this Peter King dude. He 58 years old, been coverin the NFL since '89... and now he wanna make a stand?

shyt remind me how Maclemore got hot off his gay song ("I thought I was gay for 2 days when I was in 3rd grade bout 20 years ago...)

Better now than never to realize the error in your ways. Stop complaining just to complain.

How old are you?

This been an issue since at least Super Bowl 26. There was a huge Native American protest outside of Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome during Super Bowl 26. That got National media attention.

Yeah this debate comes up about the Redskins, Braves, etc has been popping up every few years or so. It's nothing new.
