This week, someone displayed a blatant disregard for the Washington Redskins Super Bowl history.
Apparently, there were nylon parking lot banners representing NFL Super Bowls. When it came time to represent the 22nd Super Bowl, in which Washington defeated Denver 42-10, it was determined to remove the Redskins and Washington logos altogether.
The banner correctly stated Super Bowl XXII, displayed the Broncos logo, but instead of the Redskins logo they wore on their helmet for all five of Washington’s Super Bowls, the NFL logo was used instead.
Yes, someone or some group was attempting to distance themselves from the iconic logo. But even more, the decision-maker shunned Washington by not even choosing to use the current “W” logo of the Commanders.
Please tell me this isn’t happening at the SB in Glendale @NFL

What in the world was the person thinking who made such a decision?
“Let’s not give Washington the time of day.”
“Let’s give Washington the brush off.”
“Let’s shun and ignore Washington, even if they did win that Super Bowl in a 42-10 route.”
Is this going to be the future trend of the NFL? Will there be a move to remove Redskins Super Bowl history and NFL history in various ways?
What is the explanation for such shaming, scolding and scorn toward the players and coaches who won that Super Bowl as the Washington Redskins?
