If the ruling is upheld you'll see it used everywhere.

My expectation is that the redskins will cut a deal. They will change their name on the condition that they can somehow keep sole rights to the old marks. Allowing them to rebrand without anyone else being able to use the obsolete brand they are abandoning in good faith.

My great grandfather was a ranch hand in Texas, I feel the term "cowboy" is derogatory, belittling, and trivializes the hard life he led and demand the Dallas Cowboys stop using it.

Beginning of the letter I'm sending to US Patent office.

You know the deal, so why dance around it.
It's about a history of negative references.

When you played cowboys and Indians as a kid, did the Indians ever win
or did you kill them all.

Terrible analogy which makes light of the N word.

My point is that NO one uses the term in this way. When people talk about a Redskin or the Redskins everyone assumes you are talking about the NFL team.

The N word is vile and everyone knows the power and grossness behind it.

There is no comparison between the two

Well, I disagree and stand by every word. Feel free to pick a racial slur and pretend a football team used it in their name. You see, the point is that it's a racial slur. It is not a matter of degrees to the person offended, only to people watching from the sidelines.

Oh I forgot to add that I'm not making light of the N-word, I'm attempting to highlight how offensive the R word is to native Americans. This is what people seem to get stuck on. "It's not very bad". Sure, not to me it's not, and why am I the judge of what is offensive to someone else? Oh yeah, I'm not. Just pick any slur that you accept as a slur and ask yourself if that would be cool. It's off or on, good or bad, black or white.

Actually, I always wanted to be the Indian so I could scalp the fucking cowboy after I kicked his ass. All play, of course...

ok
The NY Blackskins
The Florida Brownskins
The California Yellowskins
The Minneapolis Whiteskins

some sound pretty offensive to me.
My Asian friend tells me there is nothing more annoying than a white person pointing out that they are asian.
