What are your personal feelings about the Washington Redskins football team name? Does it offend people you know or do most people not care at all?

I'm a fan of the team, which is why I asked. I grew up loving the team but never knew the name meant anything sinister, so the recent actions against the name are kind of a shock. I am sure the name will change sooner rather than later, but please know that the vast majority of fans do not connect the name to a derogatory moniker of Native Americans. It's just a word to us, no meaning. I know that doesn't help, but it is the truth.
