Redskins owner says team will 'NEVER change their name'
If the Redskins owner gets his way, the xx-year NFL franchise will never change their name. Daniel Snyder told USA Today Sports in an exclusive interview that he wouldn’t consider tweaking the team name. "We will never change the name of the team," Snyder told USA TODAY Sports 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." How about if his football team loses an ongoing federal trademark lawsuit? Would Snyder consider changing it then? "We'll never change the name," he said. "It's that simple. NEVER — you can use caps." Snyder typically doesn’t speak to the media about the case and was very brief about the subject.
