Ron checks in on the latest BS about the Washington Redskins, who got scalped by those racist 49’ers on Monday Night Football.

Look, Costas, and all the rest of the “concerned” Americans who cry “racism” when the word Redskin is used as a sports team name. Let’s face it . . . the time has passed for us to consider that demeaning and racially charged word in any context which would exalt them as respected warriors, right? We should all be sensitive to the impact that words can have in our society today, with people of different cultures, religions, languages, and customs living so close to each other.

We should ALL be insulted when any one of us is tagged by an identifying term which could be interpreted to bring shame or criticism or unruly behavior or unusual physicality upon a group of people. Right? Right!!

So, if we’re honestly going to insist that we should do away with the name Redskins for a football team, if we genuinely want to avoid offending and want to embrace the spirit of political correctness and courtesy to our fellow human beings, we MUST move forward.

We must get rid of the Kansas City Chiefs, the Atlanta Braves, and the Cleveland Indians. And if it’s just about skin color, then the Cleveland Browns have to go.

The Carolina Panthers are a clear reference to the militant blacks from the 60s and therefore offensive to white people.

The New York Yankees unquestionably offend true Southerners. I mean, really! Do you see any teams named for the Confederacy? We cannot reference any competition in any way that could resurrect the dreadful memories of that tragic war between the states.

And what about the Atheists, or the Protestants, or the non-Christians among us? How do they see the constant and blatant references to the Catholic religion with such names as New Orleans Saints, Los Angeles Angels, and San Diego Padres? Shameful!! And the mere presence of birds on their uniforms doesn’t excuse the Arizona or St. Louis Cardinals.

How about team names which glorify criminal behavior, such as rape and pillage and plunder, as a way of life, such as those dreadful Oakland Raiders, the savage Minnesota Vikings, the law-flouting Tampa Bay Buccaneers, or the evil Pittsburgh Pirates.

And it doesn’t stop there, because after all . . . it’s for The CHILDREN, right? So . . . for the children’s sakes, we must do away with the following:

Green Bay Packers and St. Louis Rams — clearly references to gay men and a bad message for the children.

The San Diego Chargers imply reckless and irresponsible spending habits. Bad message for the children.

The New York Giants and San Francisco Giants promote human growth hormones and obesity, both of which have become epidemic in our schools these days. Wrong message to children.

The Cincinnati Reds can easily be seen as promoting barbiturates, downers. Really bad message for children.

The Milwaukee Brewers? Come on! Rampant alcoholism? NOT for the children, please!!

So let’s get together and clean up our language, for the Children. We must write to our state and federal legislators to support legislation designed to eliminate this ethnic and class hatred. This is what governments are for, isn’t it? Protecting rights?

Now, rap music . . . well, that’s another matter, and it’s clearly protected by the First Amendment, so its use of words and phrases which demean and objectify women, call for acts of senseless violence and brutality, and repeat denigrating terms forbidden by anyone who is not clearly of recent African lineage — well, that’s protected by the Constitution, sacrosanct. But all those others have to go, immediately!

Don’t worry. If the liberals progressives have their way, they’ll get football banned within the next ten years and if it does stay it will prolly either be flag football or touch football, two hands above the waist, because the game as it is currently played, is just “too violent”.
