Hollywood superstar Matthew McConaughey is a big fan of the NFL Washington Redskins - both the name and logo. That despite the chorus of the politically correct who want to see both changed.

"What interests me is how quickly it got pushed into the social consciousness. We were all fine with it since the 1930s, and all of a sudden we go, ‘No, gotta change it’?',” McConaughey recently told GQ Magazine.

“I love the emblem. I dig it. It gives me a little fire and some oomph. But now that it’s in the court of public opinion, it’s going to change. I wish it wouldn’t, but it will.” he said.

What Matthew didn't explain was how a kid who grew up in a small town in Texas got to be a Redskins fan (and not the Cowboys) in the first place.
