Darrell Green does not support Redskin name change

I love the concept, but prefer they go back to the 'R' on the helmets. Logos don't need to match team names.

True. We could have a potato mascot just so it seems legit.

The protests in Denver targeted players and apparently were bigger than in Green Bay. Another protest is planned for Minnesota.

I have some native american blood in me and i really do not get this. Seems like these people have too much time on their hands. I still say the cleveland "indians" is more offensive with the damn goofy cartoon dude.

I think today's meeting between Goodell and DS is the beginning of the end for Washington's football team being called the Redskins.

I agree Irish, it's sad but I think DS will cave

I don't think anything comes from today. It's more of a let's sit down with the other side just to placate them for a while.

I just hope he doesn't change the name and logo completely

I agree with Matty. Also what makes you guys think DS is going to cave? You dont get to where he is by caving.

I agree punch but I think he'll be forced to do it eventually.

I dont think its about DS caving or the Skins/NFL placating the other side. I think this meeting is to begin to develop a unified message so that DS and the NFL can change the Skins name all the while maintaining that the word Redskins isnt a slur.

I also think they are going to get together on how to market the new name and logo to maximize the huge profits that are guaranteed to come from this change. This change is going to be a huge win-win for everybody.
