Re: Redskins Trademark cancelled

I think using Native Americans as mascots in general is the issue; some feel that they are honored by it, some feel dehumanized by it (Chief Wahoo is a pretty dehumanizing caricature if you ask me). So anything Native American will be off the table if this campaign is ultimately successful. Braves, Warriors, Chiefs, etc.

Perhaps the only option left would be an agreement with a local tribe, similar to what the Seminoles have with FSU. The Washington Powhatan has a nice ring to it.
