How would you feel if a national sports team was named after your race?

I was wondering how you would feel if a national sports team was named after your race in a derogatory fashion? (ie. Red Skins, Cleveland Indians, etc.)

Truly state your opinion. Thank you!

I would be insulted.

Brown pride! Native Pride!

    id love a sports team called the honkys or crackers.

    Gothic baby has spoken!

    most don’t know, but cracker is a racists term used againsts whites which is just as bad as calling a black person, the "N" word.

    and so is honky, please dont stand arounf while somebody calls you a honky (if you dont use the "N" word of course) its racists too just as bad as the "N" word.

    Washington Whiteboys? Chicago Cracka’s? Georgetown Grey Meats? Hollywood Honkies? Walla Walla White trash?

    It would sound stupid. I think the term "Redskin" is dead offensive. That one should be changed. I am not sure how Brave, or Fighting Souix, or FSU Seminoles are offensive. It would be like calling them Warrior, or Celtics or Virginia Cavaliers to me.
