Daniel Snyder says Redskins will never change name

Daniel Snyder is owner of the Washington pro football team he grew up adoring. Would he ever consider changing the team name that many American Indians and others believe is a racial slur?

„We will never change the name of the team,“ Snyder told USA TODAY Sports this week. „As a lifelong Redskins fan, and I think that the Redskins fans understand the great tradition and what it’s all about and what it means, so we feel pretty fortunate to be just working on next season.“

What http://www.poloshipping.co.uk/sweaters-c-27.html if his football team loses an ongoing federal trademark lawsuit? Would he consider changing it then?

„We’ll never change the name,“ he said. „It’s that simple. NEVER — you can use Ralph Lauren Shop caps.“

NFL DRAFT: Ralph Lauren UK Redskins draft grade

Snyder does not often speak to the media about the case. He talked to USA TODAY Sports very briefly about it Tuesday afternoon, following a longer interview with him and his wife Tanya about her selection as mother of the year by the American Cancer Society.

Later http://www.poloshipping.co.uk/tees-c-1.html Thursday, USA TODAY Sports will publish a story about Amanda Blackhorse, who is Navajo and the named plaintiff in the trademark suit. She said if she ever had the chance, she’d ask Snyder if he would dare to call her a redskin to her face.

„I think the best way is to just not comment on that Ralph Lauren Outlet type of stuff,“ Snyder said. „I don’t know her.“
