I love how the kid looks at his sister like "hey did you just see that" before he realizes she's a chick and there is no point.
Call me old-fashioned, but the ultimate douchebag in this video is the one who yelled "FUCKIN'" three times right next to a bunch of kids 7 years old and younger.

If that dog had been female it would be the first time you wouldn't be kicked out of a Field Hockey game where you yelled "get that bitch off the field."
The field assistants got there three seconds before the ref ate that dog.
I never disputed that the name Redskins "offends" people. I dispute that it should offend them. You called me a "jackass," for example, which I chose not to be offended by. I think life is happier for everyone this way — instead of trying to be offended, you just kind of move on.
"trenchit" was funnier than the video :)
You do understand the meaning of context, right? You seem to be in favor strict liability for using a certain word — in effect playing word police — but this approach misses a key, defining feature of our language (and, in fact, of all language): context. If I walked up to a Native American and said "Ew a Redskin,"…
That would be a hilarious team name! Taking a joke is a big part of not being a miserable person. Our culture would be better if people were less eager to be "victims" and "offended" by stupid shit like this. Bombs are going off in Baghdad, and we're talking about THIS?
I understand why they're whining — it's in everyone's interest to whine, especially if you stand to benefit. I was asking why you're listening
Yawn, move along, tough guy.
Dude, seriously, what a hilarious link, now that I've read more of it. Putting aside your personal attack, just to reiterate, that's about as biased as any "study" or "report" can get. It was literally commissioned by and paid for the people who want to achieve a specific finding —- according to page 2 of the pdf.…
Thanks for stating what was screaming around inside my melon.
LOL, that "Report" was COMMISSIONED BY NATIVE AMERICANS WHO WANT THE NAME CHANGE. It was not peer reviewed. It is openly biased and self-serving. What the hell?
I guess you're right — one Native American group is seizing on this, either because they are "offended" or simply want attention. But I don't see why we should give a shit just because someone claims to be offended by something. Surely, at some point, you have to recognize that "being offended" can be as conscious a…
"ITS SO RACIST!!!!1" -white liberals who can't intelligently argue their point
You really think everyone who isn't bothered by the name "Redskins" is racist? If so, you just called about 85-90% of America racist, thus totally devaluing the word of all meaning (or, in the alternative, taking a very judgmental and dim view of humanity that basically has no endpoint).
Free agency has greatly diminished pro sports. The reserve clause should have been changed, but things went way too far in ALL pro sports.
