According to Native Americans they interviewed on ESPN, its the equivalent of calling a team "Ni***rs" or "Zipperheads".



There's the problem, "according to Native Americans they interviewed on ESPN". ESPN=ABC, if you research it you'll find that 95% of native Americans don't find it offensive and actually use the nickname at their schools and came up with the name for themselves.

Now you can look on some white guilt (ESPN) sites for the SJW / progressive (see Bench McElroy above) view of the name, but remember you're reading some liberal diatribe.
