For years, decades when Native Americans and supporters protested the Washington NFL team name, there were cries of mass exodus and that never happened. The Cleveland team will be fine, just like Washington didn't fold with it's name change.

Actually, the ‘cries of mass exodus’ went the other way. Attendance was dropping because of the name ‘Redskins’. Once the name was changed, revenue returned.
At least Cleveland picked a better name. ‘Washington Football Team’ is just stupid.
