Re: Redskins "Name Change" Volume 10000000
I never understood why there was such an opposition to a name change. As long as the team stays in DC (or the DC area) I will be their fan no matter what they are called.
I do believe there should be a discussion, and Snyder should not be so dismissive but I have heard from reporters that is part of his personality at times.
I'll say this, if the team would be allowed to move back in to the city and get a brand new stadium and the city would be willing to give money if the team changed their name, I would want a name change. Other than that, I am not a Native American so I cannot say if it is offensive or not and I do not know the history of the term.
