Washington DC Needs a New Football Nickname: Help Them Out

[NoHuddleKelly12]

Has anyone plumbed the depths of their fanboards yet to see what the goings-on over there is on this topic? I'm curious, but not enough to check myself. ?

The Washington War Bonnets that way they could still keep a Native American connection, one that would be acceptable. They could come up with a design that wraps around a helmet with their colors for this.

I don’t know about the fanboards, but I know a lot of Redskin fans around here, and they are none-too-pleased. Good times!

DC Power. 

 

But Washington Redtails is a good historic name too.

[Starr Almighty]

 

 

I say keep the name, change the logo.  Problem solved

As the team's home is in our nation's capital, the argument could be made that they represent our national identity. 

The Washington Americans. The logo could remain the same.

I do like Red Tails a lot.

The Washington Sadness Machine
(The full name would be Dan Snyder’s Washington Sadness Machine)

I remember ICE had it after every Bills game, it didn't look like any fun.

Oh yeah?  You better hope they don't decide to name the team the 'D.C. Snail Darters'.  It will be before the courts for years.  ?

I think it was Schefter who said "The Possums"

 

They roll over and play dead at home and they get killed on the road

 

Sounds like a perfect fit

 

I also like my choice from a few days ago "The Generals"

I thought red wolves were extinct?

[Charles Romes]

I think it will be the Razorbacks.  Allows them to maintain continuity with the hogs identity and also the “R”. U Arkansas would benefit from the pub and should settle any claims.

That was the Replacements team right?  It was a dumb movie, but like watching a car crash, I’ve seen it so many times.  Anyway, good call.

There are 12 known Red Wolves in very eastern NC living in the Great Dismal Swamp.

Of the 4 years I was stationed in Norfolk, that swamp burned at least 3 of the summers. Nice smell, terrible fishing.
