80/80

Let's say enough people agreed it was offensive and the owners agreed to change.

What should their new name be in your opinion?

^ Hey now that's completely unfair.

They don't need to change their name. Just change the mascot to a potato.

A team called the Washington Bravehearts would be pretty awesome. Warriors, Redtails and Renegades are other ideas I saw in that article that would work pretty well, but I would totally go with the Bravehearts.

I mean, one is a racial slur, but you will find people who take issue with Chiefs as a mascot as well.

Yeah. There are a small amount who don't like the use of Native American names/tribes in sports at all, but most of the people complaining about the Redskins name are doing so because it's directly referring to the color of their skin, which implies the racist connotation. If there were a team that had a name like the "Seattle Yellowskins" whose logo was an Asian person, it would be just as bad. This is why teams like the Chiefs, Blackhawks, Seminoles, Braves, etc. aren't also being targeted by this.

The Cleveland Indians are fine name-wise, but their "Chief Wahoo" logo is looked at as a racist caricature, so people have also wanted that to be changed. Major League Baseball has been slowly phasing out that logo for the past couple years now.

If they still HAVE to have Native American theme. Go with the Braves like Atlanta. While some people are still put off by the name, at least it is not slur.
