REDSKINS DROP OFFENSIVE NAME . . .
The Washington Redskins finally drop offensive name: Dan Snyder, owner of the NFL Redskins, has announced that the team is dropping ” Washington ” from the team name, and it will henceforth be simply known as, “The Redskins.”
It was reported that he finds the word ‘Washington’ imparts a negative image of poor leadership, mismanagement, corruption, cheating, lying, and graft, and is not a fitting role-model for young fans of football.
