i think in a lot of different ways, dan snyder is the last holdout. to be responsible for changing this name. but it's going to happen. roger goodell came out this week and said, if this insults even one person, we need to listen to how we might be able to change this issue. eventually, 10 or 15 years from you, the washington team will have a different name. >> reid, what's your take on the name? >> jason mentioned the roger goodell interview. that caught my eye this week when i was reading the post. it sounds like he's more hope now to changing the name or at least pushing dan snyder to change that name than he has in previous interviews. by the way, the interview he did was with a former member of the washington redskins. around the country, a lot of those names are -- they're sort of treated differently by the state. north dakota really fought against changing the name of the university of north dakota team from the fighting sioux when the ncaa banned some of these names. maybe it's going to take somebody else bringing some pressure to bear on dan

think the roots of it have to do with the falling out of roger goodell and washington team owner dan snyder. he went around with someone who called himself a native american chief and saying he wasn't offended at all, and within his family, they called each other red skin as a member of endearment, how you doing redskin, i mean it was the biggest sham you could possibly imagine and roger goodell is smarting is as a result of that. if there's one thing roger gooddell knows, gently placing dan sniert schneider beneath the bus. >> there is national study that shows four out of five americans think the team shouldn't change their names. 11% opposed, 79% for, who think it should be changed. 8% weren't sure, 2% didn't answer. does schneider think he doesn't have to change the name because he's got the support from the fan and he can confidentably ignore the minority that is offend it? >> i will not crawl inside the mind of dan schneider, i assume that is a very dark dank place. but i will say this, we live in a country that is only .8% native american. in the d.c. area it is only 0.6 per. this is

team owner dan snyder vowed not to change the name. roger goodell supports the position saying it's unifying, it's a unifying force for the fan base, strength, courage, pride and respect. >> that's a tough and emotional issue. not going away. great story, and thank very much. thanks for being here. >> football's back as well. >> yes. >>> time to check the forecast. over to ginger. >> i have football in the forecast. but check in on utah, three quarters of an inch of rain in 15 minutes. very fast. flash flooding you can see, a problem. fourth time they have gotten hit, a burn car from last year. the football i was promising, you byu, texas at home. look what happened, just torrential rain. they had to delay it, but eventually byu goes on to win in on upset. thanks, jaime, i have no idea about football information. he gave me that, over texas. rain, not great. between tucson and flagstaff, 1 to 2 inch range, and that's just the southern end. rain along the canadian border. north dakota to northern minnesota have to be on alert. the sever

eagles for the season opener and back in may ten members of congress letters to redskins owner dan snyder commissioner roger goodell urging the name of the team to change its name so this is not a time i mean isn't it appropriate to say you know we don't there's not. a moment reluctant to say other names because you doubt the use derogative but just as a kind of a quick fire here is it appropriate to ask them to change and i find it very humorous that these this family that's running a casino is being suddenly sensitive when they're benefiting of a very illicit behavior first of all so i don't buy fish if you know ok i think they should. know i think this is absurd we're hiding in the native american. culture that one we wiped out this is the wrong rugged story already right this if this is the decision i know it's bring up that he's heard and the senate jewboy or something no this is not what he used in that it's not like that let's go back to the music industry that's using the n. word and nobody seems to get i get it out with l.z. oh yeah what about that and i believe that your landlor
