JetsFanInDenver Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Some notes about the original owner of the Redskins, George Preston Marshall, who named the team: * Born in West Virginia in 1896 (uh-oh). * Originally owned a basketball team called the Washington Palace Five Laundrymen. * Bought the Boston Braves football team in 1932, moved team to Washington and named them the Redskins. * According to professor Charles Ross, for 24 years Marshall was identified as the "leading racist in the NFL". * The NFL color barrier was broken in 1946. The Redskins did not sign a black player until 1962. * Washington Post columnist Shirley Povich once mocked Marshall, writing after a game against the Browns that Jim Brown "integrated the end zone", making the score "separate but unequal". * In 1962 Interior Secretary Stewart Udall and Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy issued an ultimatum - unless Marshall signed a black player, the government would revoke the Redskins' 30-year lease on their new stadium. * The Redskins finally drafted a black player, Ernie Davis of Syracuse, but he demanded a trade, saying "I won't play for that S.O.B.". He got his wish and was traded to Cleveland for Bobby Mitchell. Mitchell thus became the first black player to wear a Redskins uniform in the 1962 season. Biased against the Koreans too.
