Abstract:
The use of American Indian team names, mascots, and symbols has stirred considerable controversy over the last decade. This paper focuses on public attitudes toward the most frequently objected-to team name, the Redskins, Washington, DC’s professional football team. Data from 2 surveys, one local and the other national, establish that very few members of the general public see any need to change Redskins to another name. Support for a name change is significantly higher among racial or ethnic minorities; the more highly educated; and those who are not fans of professional football in general or the Washington team in particular. However, even in those parts of the public, support is far outweighed by opposition. These findings stand in stark contrast to the idea that Americans now routinely disassociate themselves from ideas and stereotypes that might convey the impression that they are racially insensitive.

Abstract:
This article details a sport business project intended to provide students with an opportunity to analyze critically the convergence of business, cultural, and social justice issues associated with the controversial name of the Washington Redskins football franchise. In the context of a mock debate, three teams of students represented separate interests—the Native American community, the Washington Redskins management, and Washington, D.C. government—to advocate for and against a recently proposed name change. Taking up this real topic in contemporary sport business, students received intensive exposure to self-directed learning, cultural competence, simulated debate, and spontaneous questions. Students reported in their personal reflections that the project helped improve their critical analysis of stakeholders’ positions, cultural awareness, and sensitivity to factors that can help and hinder brand meaning.

Abstract:
The relationship between the timing and outcomes of the Washington Redskins’ football games and the frequency of admissions to hospital emergency rooms in northern Virginia is investigated. An OLS time series analysis is conducted, controlling for days of the week, months, years and special holidays for 1988-1989. The results indicate that the frequency of admissions of women victims of gun shots, stabbings, assaults, falls, lacerations and being struck by objects increases when the team wins. We hypothesize that many of these injuries are the result of battering and that having a favorite team win may act as a trigger for assault in some males. We suggest that viewing the successful use of violent acts may give the identifying fan a sense of license to dominate his surroundings.

Abstract:
Human twinning poses a conundrum for researchers, given that the female uterus is optimally designed to carry a single fetus. Evolutionary explanations of dizygotic (DZ or fraternal) twinning provide insight and understanding of this reproductive event. This review is followed by summaries of recent twin research and reports concerning twins in a triplet pregnancy, double embryo transfer; a twin study of health anxiety, and delayed delivery of the second twin. Twin events reported in the media include a pair of digital marketing twins, a speech by a bereaved twin at the March for Our Lives in Washington, D.C., twins who exchanged places, and a same-team reunion of twin football players.

Abstract:
At 10:00 AM on September 24, 1943, James F. Lincoln, the sixty-year-old president and owner of the Lincoln Electric Company of Cleveland, Ohio, entered a meeting with U.S. Navy officials who wanted to discuss his company's recent earnings. A former Ohio State University football team captain and active supporter of the Republican Party, the outspoken Lincoln had already made it clear that he objected to the whole proceeding. One of the nation's leading suppliers of welding equipment, Lincoln's company had seen its sales boom since the beginning of World War II, as shipbuilders, aircraft producers, and other prime contractors demanded more welding machines and electrodes. Now, after a year of correspondence and preparations, the U.S. Navy had asked Lincoln to come to Washington to discuss how much of the company's 1942 profits were fair, and how much should be returned to the United States.

Abstract:
Using the context of the Washington Football Team, the current study examined the importance of six brand associations (team colors, community integration, culture/traditions, nickname, logo, uniform style) on fan attitudes toward a revolutionary rebrand. Data were collected from 669 Washington Football Team fans through an online questionnaire. A rating-based conjoint analysis was used to test for the relative influence of each brand association on brand desirability and rejection. Separate analyses were conducted based on respondent geographic location, existing attitudes toward the name change, and level of passion for the team. Across all analyses, team color scheme was at least three times more important than any other association. Findings suggest respondents are more likely to view the revolutionary rebrand favorably if the team keeps its existing color scheme. Conversely, brand friction is likely to occur should the color scheme change, as fans continue to wear merchandise associated with the brand prerevolution.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the evolution of the league from one centered in small and medium sized cities, to one made up of larger population centers with the exception being Green Bay. This change was the result of a strategy and was aided by the economic impact of the Great Depression. The Chicago Bears led by Bronco Nagurski was one of the powerhouse franchises of the NFL in the 1930s along with the Packers, Giants and Redskins. The decade saw the segregation of the NFL as the league succumbed to the wishes of the owner of the Washington Redskins, Preston Marshall. There was a steady growth in the interest in the league and media coverage moved beyond local coverage. By the end of the decade the league was on the brink of major status among American sports. World War II disrupted these developments and some franchises such as Pittsburgh and Philadelphia (Steagles) were combined. NFL Players and coaches joined the war effort as the league displayed its patriotism. Paul Brown became the coach of the football team at the Great Lakes Naval Training Center a powerhouse of wartime football. By wars end, there were predictions that professional football was the game of the future.

Abstract:
Abstract The year 1940 was a watershed for professional football for two reasons. First, millions of American sports fans were introduced to pro football by the first radio network broadcast of an NFL game. It was the astonishing 73 to O blowout of the Washington Redskins by the Chicago Bears in that year’s championship game. The second reason, which is not unrelated to the first, is that the game heralded a revolution in offenses, not only in pro football but, by a trickle-down process, in colleges and high schools too.

Abstract:
Two professional soccer leagues began play in 1894. The American League of Professional Football was formed by baseball club owners in Boston, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, New York, Baltimore, and Washington DC. A rival league called the American Association of Professional Football (AAPF) had four teams in Philadelphia, Trenton, Newark, and Paterson, New Jersey. The chapter argues that baseball owners launched a soccer league because they wished to maintain control over professional team sports and viewed it as an additional revenue stream that would allow them to make money year-round. The motivations for launching the AAPF are less clear. Both competitions were failures, shutting down after just weeks, with only twenty-five games played. Ultimately the leagues flopped because of poor organization, low attendance, and higher than expected costs. The failed experiments of 1894 meant that a major, fully professional soccer league would not return to the United States until 1921.
