For them, they hear Redskins and only think of the terrible, terrible football team in Maryland. But when you sit back and think about it on its own, it's an insensitive name for sure. Whether you think the insensitivity is profound enough to prompt a change (or whether you think the aggrieved party's concerns are enough to do so), that's the debate.

I don't get why the owner is so recalcitrant to change. At the least, a new logo and perhaps color scheme would mean merch $$$. Do Redskins fans really need to see a dark-skinned Native American head on a red helmet to cheer their team to another losing season? Can they not do that for the Washington Independence or Washington Swamp Monsters or the D.C. Dream Crushers?

How about they become the Washington Generals?
