Joe Theismann Joined Fox News To Talk "Redskins." It Went Poorly.

First of all - those women are terrible on that show
And Theismann is an idiot

But the highlight of the interview comes next, when Theismann is asked his thoughts on a hypothetical situation in which the NFL goes back and updates his Hall of Fame plaque with a new hypothetical nickname for the Washington team. I swear to you, this is the verbatim answer he gave directly after hearing the question.

It brings up interesting debate. Bruce Jenner versus Caitlyn Jenner. Bruce Jenner, they want to maybe change the medals from Bruce Jenner to Caitlyn Jenner because that is who he is now, or she is now. So I think you will always be—there will be a time in history where whatever you were you are. Whatever you will be going forward that is what you will become.

That would have been kind of dumb. They would have had to change it back a few years later!
