One way or another, they'll be the Red Tails. They get spanked each week. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 I have it on good authority that it's the Washington Tunnel Railings and that stunt this week was engineered to tip us off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irv Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 They need to come up with a name that sells merchandise. I'm sure that is the number one goal and they have done a bunch of studies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indigenous peoples is now the preferred nomenclature according to my daughter's elementary school teacher. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmart128 Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 I think they should have just kept name Redskins and change logo to a redskin potatoe.... kinda like how Syracuse switched from Orangemen to the Orange 3 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnBonhamRocks Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Redtails is cool, but did not hear that on the list of finalists WGR mentioned this morning. Red Hogs was one. Red Wolves is a fan favorite but out because of trademark issues. Then a bunch of DC/military names like Brigade, Commanders, Presidents, etc., and apparently the logo tease has 3 stars so it’ll likely be one of these. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the recent rumors are true, it will be Commanders since the (Red)Wolves was eliminated due to trademark issues. Commanders is okay I suppose. They could have done a lot worse (and still might.)

transient Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 I think they should embrace their dysfunction and change it to Washington "WTF"EF - What The FedExField. It could be the next pop-culture euphemism like "Shut the front door." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, spoken to several, including a close friend of mine. They all agree that while the “Braves” & “Chiefs” monikers may have some gray areas to them, there’s no debate that the term “Redskins” is derogatory. It’s ok to correct certain mistakes and learn and grow as a society without shouting “cancel culture”. Try it sometime. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Murdock Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 The Washington Generals seems about right. Under Snyder, the team has been a laughingstock for 3 decades. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
