After dropping its 87-year-old team name, the Redskins, the WaShiNgToN FoOtBaLL TeAm announced today that they are also getting rid of cheerleaders. To be more "inclusive, modern, and diverse," of course. (READ: WOKE)

Instead, after more than 50 seasons with a consistent cheerleading presence, a coed dance squad will take the field for the WFT's gameday entertainment. Petra Pope, the club's newly hired senior adviser, told USA TODAY Sports on Tuesday that the new dance squad looks to become more modern and diverse, with a "skillset of being super athletic, which is what we're really honing in on."

Well, this is sad. :ohno

We haven't followed pro football in over 20 yrs, and we certainly don't plan to start following them any time soon.

But, back in the day, the Washington Redskins team was one of mine and Edward's favorites. The WVU marching band was invited - more than once - to play their halftime show. The band director declined, my junior year, because it was late in the semester and he thought we oughta be putting our effort into preparing for finals, hehe.

Between all this "Woke" business with changing team names, and now - really crazy - getting rid of the cheerleaders, I can't figure out the attraction to pro football. I'll just go on and say it - how many members of that co-ed dance team are actually going to be members of the LGBTQ world? :tsk
