USPTO Cancels "Redskins" Mark

According to multiple sources, the US Patent and Trademark Office has canceled the Washington Redskins trademark, on the grounds that the mark is disparaging (copy of TTAB order here).  Also canceled: the cheerleaders' mark "Redskinettes." 

The decision is 80 pages, and the dissent is 99 pages, so this is going to take a bit of digesting.  Which, as a fan of the team, I will do.  One interesting bit that pops out immediately:  the focus of the decision is on marks that include the word "redskins."  The logo pictured above, which does not contain the offending word, is not covered by the decision.  Which raises interesting implications for other teams, like the Cleveland Indians, whose name is presumably not disparaging, although this logo presumably would be.
