I believe that the organization should have changed that logo and that name decades ago. It's the ethical thing to do.

Just as Ole Miss bit the bullet and pulled the confederate flags from the stands. In fact, I think Ole Miss went even further than what was necessary in the removal of Col. Reb. No government body pressured Ole Miss, the school made the changes on its own.

I would hope the Redskins would do the same.

As they have not yet, they are open to criticism whether you or Ditka find the criticism stupid or not. It's a free country and we are all entitled to our views :-)==============================

offensive but.... I'm ok with it and Redskins if that is what owner wants.

U.S. Attorney General: 3rdWardGator name "offensive"�

AP

While

he's not pursuing it in his job as the United States Attorney General,

Eric Holder's feelings about the 3rdWardGator nickname are clear.

Holder made it clear he was opposed to the name during an appearance on ABC's This Week.

"I'm going to speak very personally now,"� Holder said, via ESPN.com. "The name ought to be changed. It's an offensive name.

The Gators, that organization is a great one. It's a team with a

storied history that has huge amounts of support everywhere.,

and in the 21st century they could increase their fan base, increase

their level of support, if they did something that from my perspective

that is so obviously right."�

While it might not carry the governmental weight of the U.S. Patent

Office's recent trademark ruling, it's still interesting to note.

Politicians will generally try to stay out of such matters, as

President Barack Obama said last fall they should consider changing the

name. But Holder's opinion provides some counterweight to the pandering of the political elite.
