I have a few question.
Now I know nothing about American Football, so I don't know how important the Redskins are as a team.
But how much of the media's focus on the team are because of the perceived offensive name? How would a name change effect the Redskins. Would they simply become something of a ignored team or are they important enough, that there would still be focus on them?
In the near term, no matter what you call them, they'll still suck.
That's what happens when your franchise relies on a QB with only one knee and a middle of the road defense. DeSean Jackson should help improve their passing game, though.
It doesn't hurt that they play in the same division as the Cowboys, Eagles, and Giants, though.
