Breaking News on team name

[sandtrapjack]

The NFL is going to give this a wide berth and go all out to avoid dipping their toes in that pond. They are keeping out of this court of public opinion (for once) and letting Washington fight the battle.

I believe if the NFL really wanted to force any suggestion for a name change 'for the collective good of the league' there are avenues they could have taken already. Like not selling the merchandise in the NFL store, removing link references to the team website etc etc etc.

The silence of the NFL on this really speaks volumes of their indifference to the whole thing.
