The key points to me are whether the Native American population are really against the name, or if it is just a few vocal opponents. Is that same population more against the Redskins than they are other pro sports nicknames? And was Redksins really ever an actual racist term, or was it more similar to something like Indians? Everything I have ever read is very conflicting in for all 3 of those points.
