    Since Snyder is allowed to keep the logo he should just stick it to the NFL and call his team the Washington Savages.

    Proof please?

    None of the res guys I grew up with give two s. And browsing the comments from multiple articles it doesn't seem like Native Americans give two s either.

    Next up:
    Kansas City Chiefs
    Cleveland Indians
    Cleveland Browns
    Atlanta Braves

    Yup.

    Ive also read many more articles from other Native Americans that said the same thing, they don't give a about the name and have more pressing needs than to worry about an NFL team. The white guilt is getting offensive.

    According to wiki eleven high schools use savages as a mascot. Hard to believe today; probably won't last long though. The Cleveland Indians logo is definitely doomed. They might just get a new name while they're at it. Does anybody know if Red Raider refers to natives? I always thought it did because I couldn't think of anything else a Red Raider could be. Wiki says that Texas Tech got the name from red uniforms they had but there are high schools that use it.

    One thing I'd like to know: I wonder if there are more Native Americans offended by Redskins or more blacks offended that Washington was a slave owner. In the future everyone should just play it safe and name their cities after people of color and their sports teams after white people.

    What about the fighting Irish? Not only is it the same thing but it's worse because it's also a stereotype of them rather than just an observation of skin color.

    But I forgot liberals think there is no such thing as prejudice against white people. Can't wait for the day of the rope when the cancer of all western civilization is removed.

    Talk to any white nationalist or national socialist and this is why white leftists are hated way more than any "minority" were supposedly "racist" against. All you self hating traitors can eat ing suckers.

    Chief Wahoo is being phased out in Cleveland already you ignorant s.

    http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/10...ief-wahoo-logo

    And why am I not surprised that TSA ignores the litany of tribes and individuals speaking against the name and hand waves after anecdotes. After all the complaint to the patent office was submitted by a group of indians.

    A simple google search will reveal reams of native americans who reject the name and likeness.

    I ignored nothing. I simply pointed out there were many Native Americans who do not take offense.

    And why am I not surprised Lumpy ignores the Native Americans who are supportive of the name?

    A simple google search will reveal this.

    That's a great column. Did you read the whole thing?
    Of course, I posted it and linked it as the first article for a reason. The writer is offended by the word Redskin, but he also points out "The vast majority of Native people do not sit around wishing the Redskins would change their name" and "The anti-Redskins movement is driven by a small percentage of Native people". This is what I've been saying the whole time.

    Sure, most Native Americans don't sit around obsessing about the Redskins name, and most of them don't really have the time or resources to fight it. Does that mean we should fight to keep it around when there is a good number of others who ARE bothered by it?

    A lot of black folks didn't think segregation was a big deal and weren't really all that interested in fighting it. I would guess most black people didn't really do anything to fight it. Didn't mean it was ok.

    It's not about some kind of popular vote. Sometimes society decides that certain things are beneath them and they want to be better.

    And what if the majority of Native Americans are not opposed to a team named the Redskins? Society gets to speak for the Native Americans?

    Getting rid of segregation was a huge mistake
