The only reason I'm against this change is the reasons for it. If Native Americans largely prefer the name or are indifferent who is everyone else to say they should be offended? Pretty condescending if you ask me. And I don't like kowtowing to the PC crowd because after the name changes they'll just move onto something else to be offended by.
That being said, if we could tie the name change into playing in new stadium back in DC again I'd seriously be torn about changing it. The Piscataway's were native to the DC area. We could still honor native americans and do it with a specific historical flavor to the DC area.

This is kind of how I feel about PC issues. How many people does it take to take action against something? 1? 1,000,000? I'm fairly liberal, but that shit does annoy me especially when the people who care seem to be largely Caucasian.
