A 'redskin' is the scalped head of a Native American, sold, like a pelt, for cash: 50 pounds for adult male scalps; 25 for adult female scalps; 20 for scalps of boys and girls under age 12. These bloody scalps were known as “redskins” — the most offensive name one could ever call a Native American

Didn't someone conduct a poll and find out that Native Americans almost unanimously do not give a fuck about this? Personally I don't care if they keep the name or not, I haven't given a shit about the NFL in 21 years.
