ESPN Re-brands Saints Logo - along with other teams

On a serious note, the Redskins need a name change badly.

Names like Braves, Indians, Seminoles and Warriors are OK because they show respect, but Redskins in one that I see as totally unacceptable as a team name. And trust me, I detest most of the hypocritical PC movement with a passion, but that one's just gotta go.

BTTT: My favorie was certainly the Bills. Creative and clever.

I'm down with that change, as long as they change the name of the Saints too, as it offends my atheistic values.

I don't think the name "Saints" is offensive to Saints, but I'm pretty sure the name Redskins is offensive to Native Americans.

If you don't believe then there's no problem. Just view them as mythical creatures, until of course that time comes when you discover you're wrong, then you have some pretty significant problems to deal with.
