WASHINGTON -- A group of American Indians who find the Washington Redskins name offensive wants the Supreme Court to take up the matter.
The group late Monday asked the justices to review a lower court decision that favored the NFL team on a legal technicality.
A lawyer for the group says he'd like to see the court decide once and for all whether the Redskins name defames Native Americans.ESPN
I don't know what to think of this because I'm all for tradition but Redskins is a politically incorrect name. There would be no different between the Washington Honkies or the Oakland Gooks. I think the name should probably be changed however, I will miss the blatant racism in the NFL.
