One ongoing controversy is the ever-simmering tension surrounding the Washington Redskins' team name. Over 20 Native American tribes and 50 groups representing the Native American people have officially demanded that the team change its name due to negative connotations suggesting that 'Redskins' is derogatory. However, various national opinion polls suggest that the majority of the country - somewhere between 70-90% - do not mind the continued use of the name and logo. It is a battle that will surely keep on bubbling until either side gives way.
