so, should we come up with new names for
blue spruces

the White House

red/white/pink, etc. roses

black / brown bears

great white sharks

yellow jackets

blue jeans

humans have used color to name and describle things for thousands of years. It is natural to associate things with color be it a tree, an animal, or a person. Anybody who gets vocal about renaming the items I have listed above to remove the color and assign a name that better describes where they come from or what they are made out of would probably be laughed out of the room.

So unless the Native Americans personally request the NFL change the name, I don't see why it should be done. Based on the OP, the Native Americans had an involvement in selecting the name and logo.
