All of a sudden everybody's feeling are getting hurt because they don't like the name of the football team. My husband and I see nothing wrong with calling it the Washington Redskins and my husband is Cherokee Indian. Indian's have always been called Redskins just like Italians have been call Waps and so on. I guess they don't have anything else to do in life but, complain about something.

I see no reason to change the name. What should it be? The Washington Hogs?

The Cincinnati Zoo is renowned for its Bengal Tigers which is reason behind the "Asian cats" connection. See http://www.cincyzoo.org/index2.html
