"We will never change the name of the team," Snyder told the newspaper in an interview this week. "As a lifelong Redskins fan, and I think that the Redskins fans understand the great tradition and what it's all about and what it means, so we feel pretty fortunate to be just working on next season."

"We'll never change the name," Snyder told USA Today. "It's that simple. NEVER -- you can use caps."

While I don't the Skins, and think Snyder is an idiot as far as running a team is concerned. That is great to hear. Not that I ever thought the DC city council had any say.

And the media will not stop pushing for a change and talking about it.

Its a shame that we will just have to ignore it but I guess that's what we have to do. Just tune it out.

And what of the question Blackhorse wanted to ask if she ever met him? Would Snyder dare call her a redskin to her face?

"I think the best way is to just not comment on that type of stuff," Snyder said. "I don't know her."

Blackhorse says she is not surprised at Snyder's answer. "If it was appropriate to call me that, he'd comment," she says. "It must make him uncomfortable to talk about it, and it should make him uncomfortable. "He's right. He doesn't know me, or my people. And if he did, he would not use that name."
