I’m going to go out on a limb and say I know that those who want to keep the name are not ruthless, mean people. What I do know is that they are seeing the ordeal in an egotistical, narrow-minded fashion. In his open letter to the public regarding the Redskins name controversy, team owner Dan Snyder went off on a nostalgic tangent as he recalled all the amazing memories he created as a child at his first Redskins game. To Snyder, I pose a question- why would changing the name to be culturally accepting obliterate fond childhood memories? The answer is that it wouldn’t.
