There’s plenty of ugliness to find in a team’s name if you look hard enough and want to see it.

This week I’m sharing my own thoughts on the sports team renaming controversy, starting with the Redskins. To my reading of history, there are plenty of team names, that when you dig into them, are out of bounds when it comes to political correctness. So there’s that and my ideas on new team names.

It’s been said that Drew is a bit crazy. It’s probably true. (Well, OK, it’s a certifiable fact.) That said, when people think that of you, you can get away with a whole lot more. And maybe it takes a little bit of crazy to come up with outside the box ideas. That’s exactly what Drew’s done for more than 30 years in the podcasting, marketing, branding and advertising space. He gets it. For any creative to work, no matter how outside the box, it needs to be true to the core values of a business or its owner. At LeftBrainRightBrain, we call it being logically creative. It’s our secret sauce.
