The Washington Redskins have come under renewed pressure to change their team name. There are many other NFL teams I find equally offensive.
The Cowboys? Hello? As archaic as Redskins. Change to the Bovine Administrators.
The Vikings? We prefer Nordic Explorers.

The Texans? That is statest. Which rhymes with racist. So change it.

Saints? Really? Have you ever been to New Orleans? About as many Saints as there are virgins in a Newark strip club. Change it to anything else. 

The Panthers? Practically the same animal as the Jaguars. Like porpoises and dolphins. Blatant case of animal redundancy. Change it.
Giants? How about Pituitary Challenged? 
The Buffalo Bills? Show some respect and call them Mr. Cody.
The Titans? Please, if the Buccaneers are nicknamed the Bucs and the Packers the Pack, what would that make the Titan’s nickname? Exactly. Sexist. Change it.

What's wrong with your Buccaneers? Nothing, what's wrong with your effing ears? Sorry, old joke. But change it. It offends gay pirates. 

The Packers? That name is so stupid I think it should stay the same.

Bengals? The name Tigers isn't good enough for you? Nothing worse than animal elitists. Change it. 
The Jaguars? See Titans' nickname. Change it.
The Bears? Don’t plus-sized, hairy gay men have enough problems without a football team's name mocking them? Change it.
The Chiefs? Change to:  Indigenous People’s Tribal Leaders.
The Lions? Where to start? There are so many things that offend me about this name, I just can't remember what they are. But change it. 

The Browns? What can Brown do for me? Change their damn name, too much potty humor.
And The Chargers? As of now I can’t figure out how that offends me, but I will. And when I do, watch out, because I will be seriously offended. 
Since you asked:
For the first time in almost a decade, a “Monday Night Football” home game, at the San Diego Chargers, was almost blacked out but for ESPN and other businesses buying the 10,000 un-sold tickets. Why so many unsold tickets? Here is a partial tough-love list of things we San Diegans would rather do than attend a Charger game:
Surfing
Golf
All other beach activity, snorkeling, boogey-boarding, swimming, tide-pool searching.
Take the dog to the park
Hiking or mountain biking or running
Barbecue at home and watch the game for free on your Hi-Def big screen
Surfing (You already mentioned surfing) I know, but I like surfing
Going to Julian to pick apples. (This is for single guys trying to impress their girl)
Picking wild flowers in Carlsbad (See above applicants)
And the main thing San Diegans would rather do than attend a Charger Game?
Not go to the Charger game. (Huh?)
We don’t want to burn up gas and time in a traffic jam both on the way in and out. Then pay $30 to park after paying at least $150 for a ticket for a lousy seat in a lousy stadium.We don't want to get a beer bottle smashed on our head in the parking lot by some drunk a-hole in a Raiders jersey when the Raiders aren't even playing. Not pay $50 for a couple of beers and burgers. Not sit around wondering why the players are standing around for so long only to realize it is one of countless TV timeouts.
