Which quarterback?
I think I was hearing something about this, and I thought it was stupid --
look how many black quarterbacks there are these days. So I can't
remember which one was getting the hype being questioned.
As far as the Washington DC football team goes, I heard an interesting
proposal: Don't change the name, but totally change the logo. But keep
the same colors. You can do it. A red potato (of course, only the *skin*
is red!), split at the top with a nice pat of butter will do it nicely.
