it has nothing to do with any sensitivity to the name .. its actually quite the opposite.
if and when the skins do change names, I could see people like him seeing it as an opportunity to cut ties. really it comes down to not liking the owner, fed ex field and not really associating with the DC yuppy/stuffy fan base vs the ravens who have a solid well run organization and down to earth fans.
for me .. going to skins games at fed ex really kinda sucks on all levels (cost, crappy parking, lots of bad seats, fans telling you to sit down when the skins are on D, etc..). i dont think i could switch. personally i dont think he would actually be able to go through with it either.
but if the skins continue to suck over the next few years and then have to change names .. i could see a noticeable segment of fans leaving the B&G.
i just thought it was interesting that he would even talk about an escape route. he is no fair weather skins fan.
