If we change, is the feeling we move away from Indians reference all together? I rather keep it indian related.

Also, is the logo ok with these liberal elitist white people or are they stating thats racist too?
This is happening too:

I would think more people would be bothered by the logo than the name. But who knows. Anyone can be offended about anything

It's ANY kind of American Indian imagery - ultimately the people who oppose it oppose all of it.

There is absolutely NO WAY we change the name but keep the logo.

Im sorry but I have to share this rediculous garbage:
Mike Wise: ‘Daniel Snyder Just Wants To Be Right’ « The Morning Show – CBS Sports Radio (http://tbd.radio.cbssports.com/2014/06/19/mike-wise-daniel-snyder-just-wants-to-be-right/)
"It appears Snyder doesn’t notice the angry fans, either.
“There’s just a fatigue in the fan base now where they’re tired of players being asked about it, (and) they’re tired of the team spending millions (on lawyers and) lobbyists to defend it,” Wise said. “They’re sort of (tired of it).”
And what would happen if Washington actually won a Super Bowl? What if there’s a parade down Constitution Avenue? That would be arguably the most controversial victory parade in sports history.
“Do we want to sully future memories?” Wise asked. “Do we want protestors off to the side yelling at our players and our fans?”
Seriously?

If Mike Wise threw a rock at a hornets' nest he'd be shocked when they tried to sting him.
