Two sports broadcasters will do their best to avoid using the Washington NFL team's racist mascot on air.

CBS lead analyst Phil Simms said he is sensitive to Indian complaints about the name. NBC’s Tony Dungy also said he is concerned.

“I never really thought about it, and then it came up and it made me think about it,” Simms told the AP. “There are a lot of things that can come up in a broadcast, and I am sensitive to this.”
