You will be pleasantly surprised at the name they chose. Scroll down to the statement by the Navajo President. Though I think it's silly to change the names...Cancel Culture and all...I could approve this one!

Sponsors make the difference.
As they do in all of television/entertainment.

Smoke signalers...? How about the Washington Braves? or the Washington Blackhawkes? Or the Washington Super Chiefs? There’s a CFL team called the Ottawa ‘Red Blacks’... They apparently don’t mind offending both blacks and reds.

Name the boy in this famous joke:
A Native American boy asked his mother,"Momma,why do we Indians have such funny names?"
The mother said they name children for the first thing a mother sees after the child is born. That is why they named him "Two Dogs #ucking".

Why would anyone want to name a sports team after ‘Conquered Peoples™’?
And while we are at it any reference to anyone other than ‘wypepol’ should be removed from the public eye.
You know, just make the mob happy...

A name change will not matter. Real fans are going to disappear throughout the NFL. Football overcome by politics has no appeal.
To: luvie
Do what Prince did. Change the name to an unpronounceable symbol and then refer to them as the “team formally known as the Redskins.”
To: luvie
We strongly encourage the NFL Washington organization to rename their team in such a way that truly honors and respects the First Americans of this country. Renaming the team 'Code Talkers' to honor the Navajo Code Talkers, and other tribal nations who used their sacred language to help win World War II, would set the team on a path to restoring its reputation and correcting the historical misrepresentation of Indigenous peoples. And that'll piss of the Hopis, Blackfoot, Crow, Utes, Otoes, Senecas, Eries, Mohawks, etc...

How do you make a logo out of that?
Washington should drop 'Redskins' and replace it with nothing. Just go by 'Washington'. It's what sports announcers have been calling them for a couple of years anyway.

If you don’t know who the first nth Americans were how do you know if you’ve changed the name. Washington Clovis, Washington Folsom or the Washington Solutreans.

How about the Washington Titmice? Banana Slugs is already. Or perhaps in a bid for new sponsorship, the Washington Emus.
