New York Giants at Washington Redskins

FILE - This Aug. 28, 2009 file photo shows the Washington Redskins logo on the field before he start of a preseason NFL football game in Landover, Md. he team's nickname, which some consider a derogatory term for Native Americans, has faced a barrage of criticism. Local leaders and pundits have called for a name change. Opponents have launched a legal challenge intended to deny the team federal trademark protection. A bill introduced in Congress in March would do the same, though it appears unlikely to pass. But a new Associated Press-GfK poll shows that nationally, “Redskins” still enjoys widespread support.
