I ask because with the possibility of name change and some including myself wanting to stay with some form of connection with the past Redskin days .. is the name Warriors, warpath , tribe, Native American, Cherokee, Apache, Seminole, Braves, tomahawk, Arrows, is any of that acceptable?? Or should all teams avoid any reference to native Americans? ( I understand how redskin could be viewed as offensive by some ) but surely the team should be able to come up with something that has a connection with the Native American Indian with being offensive.. or can they ??

Native Americans

Indian only came from early settlers that thought they had landed in India.
