Really it's a football team name. How important is it really? The term Yankee is a derogatory term as well and IMO you either take all these names tongue and cheek or you have to
change them all as I'm not a big fan of picking and choosing which derogatory term takes precedence over the other and that's basically what's being asked here.
Personally I feel any new professional sports franchises obviously shouldn't be choosing new names based on derogatory terms but I'm not a big fan of changing historical franchise names just to make a very small group of people happy. When it comes to being politically correct I feel there's a line where enough is enough because if you end up trying to make everyone happy you end up making nobody happy.
