Sheriff:
When much of this controversy started about 8-10 years ago, I suggested to some colleagues that there was a simple solution to the problem:
Keep the name Redskins.
Change the logo on the helmet to a potato.
No one liked the idea then; I doubt lots of folks would like it now. But it might stop the focus on the team name and allow people to focus on the team performance - - which is a lot more important to me.
