          Cancel culture at it's finest. Nothing offensive about it. If anything it makes people remember Indians and Indians and can proud to be a part of the NFL with the name and logo. Again nothing really offensive about it.

          Let's change the Redskins name and forget the Indians is what they did. KC Chiefs got next up!

                  It's a great area for barbecue. Chefs would be a natural for ad-revenue.

                      What you crying about ? You cancelled drinking booze. No one complaining are they about your decision? The mental health of the aboriginal people is important just like your mental health.

                            What’s next….animal right activists protesting that we can’t use animal names? Having your name chosen should be looked at as an honor and not demeaning. When the Texans chose their name, you don’t hear anyone from Texas complaining. It’s looked at as a proud honor.

                              This is not a problem in Europe. Teams have names that are not offensive to the native people. Names like Spurs (Tottenham Hotspur), Red Devils (Manchester United), The Cherries, The Gunners, The Bees, The Seagulls, The Clarets, The Blues, The Eagles, The Reds, The Hatters, The Citizens, The Magpies, The Blades, The Hammers, The Wanderers.

                              Only in the US they stole the Native American names to name the sports teams. It is wrong. I have family who are Native American and they are mad at this for a long time.

                                    So does this mean Native Americans own the term “Chiefs”? It’s rhetorical. I’m sure when KC thought of this name, they are thinking about the fighting spirit and braveness indicative of native americans.

                                    If you want to get technical about it you could say the Cowboys is demeaning as I’m sure there are real life cowboys out there but you don’t hear any of them complaining.

                                      Not sure but I've heard that everyone 50 years or older is pretty upset with the SF 49'ers.

                                      Just a rumor at this point.

                                          Well the Cowboys of this country stole their land and killed most of them and forced them to live in reservations and be poor. They do not need to steal their heritage by naming their teams after them. You will never undestand the pain as you are not Native American.

                                            you could say that Native Americans stole this land from the people before them. It goes on for generations.

                                            It’s been hundreds of years now and if they choose to still live poor, they have no one to blame but themselves. Stop blaming it on society and no I am not caucasian.

                                                    Actually native american tribes slaughtered and enslaved each other well before any white man stepped onto the land

                                                    Every piece of land in the world was the same at that time

                                                    The main reason the native americans lost the fight was because they were still trying to kill each other, instead of uniting and fighting as one against the white man

                                                    Plus, smallpox wiped them out

Names like Spurs (Tottenham Hotspur), Red Devils (Manchester United), The Cherries, The Gunners, The Bees, The Seagulls, The Clarets, The Blues, The Eagles, The Reds, The Hatters, The Citizens, The Magpies, The Blades, The Hammers, The Wanderers.

                                                          Only in the US they stole the Native American names to name the sports teams. It is wrong. I have family who are Native American and they are mad at this for a long time.

                                                          I have plenty of native american friends who are MAD about the name changes...... and still wear their Redskins jerseys....

                                                            just change the chiefs team name to the Refs... that is who you actually have to beat when another team plays them.
