Seriously? The name and caricature is racist. Saying “most don’t object” misses the point that many do and the rest of us should be smart enough and sensitive enough to recognize that it is racist, it is wrong. God, are people so stupid and caught up in tradition to defend and justify this s7%&^%?! First the Confederate flag and now this. No wonder conservatives and Republicans get painted as racists and bigots. How about for once get ahead of this and say enough, change the name and image.
How about this? Washington Natives?
What about the Oakland RAIDERS ?
Minnesota Vikings ?
Tampa Bay Buccaneers ?
New Orleans Saints ?
New York YANKS ?
Pottsville MAROONS ?
