The team name for Washington's professional football team, Redskins, has divided this country. Either you believe it is a racist slur or you're Dan Snyder, the team owner.

For Fox's Minority Report, we are headed into an enlightened future (2065) where the Washington Redskins have been changed to a name that truly honors the Native Americans.

"A small thing is we're in Washington, D.C. and [the football team] is now called the Washington Red Clouds," Executive Producer Max Borenstein said on Thursday at the Television Critics Association press tour in Beverly Hills (via TV Line). The new team name is an homage to Red Cloud (1822 – 1909), a great Native American leader who took on the United States Army for control of the Powder River Country in parts of Wyoming and Montana.
