Possibly worse than the WaPo’s chicken logo.

Via PETA:

PETA is no stranger to creating controversy by asking sports teams to change their exploitative mascots, but in this case, we’re offering to help a football franchise fend off criticism.

After the Washington Redskins came under renewed pressure to change the team’s name as a result of its racial implications, we leapt to the rescue with an ingenious—and healthy—solution.

Don’t change the legendary Redskins name. Just change the logo.

When you hear the word “redskin,” what do you immediately think of? Potatoes, of course! And who could be offended by a harmless redskin potato—except, maybe, for the Yukon Gold lobby (and if Alaska had a football team, rest assured that we’d be the first to suggest the Yukon Gold Diggers as a franchise name).
