FILE - In this Oct. 12, 2008 file photo, Washington Redskins owner Daniel Snyder is seen before the St. Louis Rams NFL football game in Landover, Md. Snyder says it's time to put some money behind his claim that his team's nickname honors Native Americans. Snyder said Monday March 24, 2014, he's creating a foundation to assist American Indian tribes, even as some in that community continue to assert that the name "Redskins" is offensive.
