Some Indians have argued the name is an outdated slur that should not be given federal protections.

Read white, elitist, do-gooder liberals.

Well, then they should drag the Navajo school into court because their team is the Redskins.

Oh yeah, this is the burning issue of our time (maybe second only to Gore-Bull warming).

Good evening, Army Bro! This Fighting Irishman invokes our dear FRiend LTOS for her take on this controversy.

My own take? Some years ago, the PC termites of the MSM, notably the Washington Fishwrap and others, dropped the word "Fighting" from the name of the Notre Dame athletic teams.

I say BULL HOCKEY!!!

We are the Fighting Irish - fought through centuries of oppression and wrested our Freedom by force of arms, strength of will and the Grace of God!

What say you, FRiends? Redskins? Braves? Seminoles? Salukis?

How about some other names people are objecting to - War-Eagles? Chiefs? Warriors? Fighting Illini? Fighting Sioux? Cardinals?

The Redskins name doesn't seem to bother the President of the Navajo Nation, seen here enjoying the Redskin's game with the Redskins owner.

so how much will this cost the taxpayers? If the Redskins win will the Obama Administration go for an appeal. Just to tie up everything in legal challenges.

I am a life-long Dallas Cowboys fan and detest ALL that is “Washington Redskins!”

With that said, in this fight, I will be siding with the Redskins!
