Look, if you were trying to get a Native American's attention you aren't going to say, "Hey redskin!". Just like you wouldn't say hey ****, honky, spic or chink. So if redskin isn't a word you would use in civil conversations, why would it be acceptable to name a football team redskins?
Again, the definition of racist is the belief that people of a race are inferior to others because of their race. Naming your organization the Redskins says, if anything, that you believe the Redskins are SUPERIOR not inferior. Why would you name your sports team after something you believe to be inferior? That doesn't make any sense.
The logic just fails when anyone tries to insinuate that the Washington franchise naming their team the Redskins is racist.
