A group of American Indians who find the Washington Redskins' name offensive wants the Supreme Court to take up the matter. The seven Native Americans have been working through the court system since 1992 to have the Redskins' trademarks declared invalid. A U.S. Patent and Trademark Office panel ruled in their favor in 1999, but they've since suffered a series of defeats from judges who ruled that the plaintiffs waited too long to bring their suit in the first place. With fans across the country taking interest in the story, and flooding their website looking for answers, the largest most successful sportsbook on the web BetUS.com posted odds on the situation and possible outcomes.
