Edmonton to drop 'Eskimos' name - CFL Football goes full libtard!

The Edmonton Canadian Football League franchise has made an internal decision to change its 'Eskimos' nickname, sources tell TSN.

Edmonton's decision follows a team announcement that a review of the nickname was ongoing and comes on the heels of the Washington National Football League franchise ceasing the use of its nickname, one derogatory towards Indigenous people.

"We acknowledge and appreciate the feedback and input regarding our name," the team said in a July 8th statement. "We take this issue seriously as has been demonstrated by the three years weve spent engaging in Canada's north and conducting research related to our name. We recognize that a lot has occurred since this information was gathered, and as a result, we are accelerating our ongoing process of review. We will be seeking further input from the Inuit, our partners and other stakeholders to inform our decisions moving forward. We'll continue to listen carefully and with an open mind. We intend to complete our review as quickly as possible and will provide an update on these discussions by the end of this month."
