You are correct that the percentage is in favor of keeping the name, but that support is declining rapidly. Down to 71%...and will continue to drop (IMHO) as people become educated about the issue.
The change is a foregone conclusion, in my estimation and Snyder knows it. Good for him.
From a business standpoint, it's pretty shrewd.

I have to disagree with you on this - the Redskins did everything possible to avoid changing their name and made plenty of mistakes during the 'battle' to avoid it. From a business standpoint, I think they missed opportunities to take this with vaseline. Any decline in percentage of disagreement has nothing to do with education, and everything to do with the bandwagon effect once it became a foregone conclusion. Still, 71% is huge - good for those people.
I'm out of this one, as it's gotten so spinny I'm getting dizzy.
