The Redtails and an Emmett Till apology

• NFL Editor Jay points out a possible name change of the Washington Redskins to the Washington Redtails...as in the Tuskegee Pilot Redtails. There have been complaints for years about Native-American names being used to sell tickets, but I doubt anyone would object to the proposed new name.
• And rapper Lil Wayne has apologized to the family of Emmett Till for some offensive lyrics he
  
  used in a song released in February. He'd been silent about the controversy till the family said it might go after his Corporate sponsor...Mountain Dew. The entire thing is distasteful, from the "Karate Chop" song to the fact that he even has a corporate sponsor. But if you want details, here they are on the MTV website. If you aren't sure who Emmett Till was, here's a primer.[UPDATE: The Till Family says "apology" falls short.
