Redskins Nutty Name Change Campaign

Apparently, the Washington Redskins battle to keep their name just got a little more complicated as they lost their trademark by the U.S. Patents Office.

I think this is worth mentioning:

"Most Indians Say Name of Washington “Redskins” Is Acceptable While 9 Percent Call It Offensive."

People call this 'progress.' No, it's not and if you think it is, you need to rethink what progress is. Professional offenders are driving this non-story I bet.

No word on whether Redskin potatoes will have to change its name. 

In any event, not a big fan of intellectual property rights as well as it being enforced by an entity like the USPO.
