WASHINGTON | Murial Bowser says Redskins team name is an obstacle to D.C Return

Whitt cites the universally praised decision for NASCAR to remove all confederate flags as evidence for a positive outlook on the organization.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, however, has been oddly silent on the state of the country's social climate, a departure from his usual openly opinionated self.
