Washington name opponents respond to Bruce Allen’s remarks
If Washington executive V.P. of football operations Bruce Allen had said anything other than “no” when asked whether the franchise would consider a name change if it meant getting a new stadium in D.C., the response from those who oppose the name would have been, “Washington wavers on name of team!”
But there’s still a response to Allen’s comments from the Change the Mascot movement, a group that consists of the National Congress of American Indians, the United South and Eastern Tribes, Inc., and the Oneida Indian Nation. And it’s fairly strongly worded, with a slap at Allen’s understated offseason demotion-promotion from G.M.
