There has been a LONG battle here in the DC area to change the name of th Redskins. In a TV interview the Native American they were interviewing said that "Redskin" to them is the equivalent to "nigger" to us. But they've been debating that forever, and have come no closer to making a change. I mean, It wouldn't be TAHT hard, they changed our basketball team a few years back from the Washington Bullets (another long tradition) to the Wizards (which sucks, but whatever). What they did was they had the public suggest new names and then they picked 5 I think and someone(s) picked the final name, so the people had SOME say in the matter. But you know its HARD for some folks to break with tradition.
