If the name does end up being the Commanders, even with or without the ridiculous seal / logo that may have been "leaked", then I am likely through with my fandom regarding this organization.
I had lots, lots of great times as a Skins fan, but unfortunately looking back it seems I had more bad times than good times. Please keep in mind, I am young-ish (37 years old), so was never really "around" to see this Franchise with a good owner and during "good times".

That is a shame. Most speak of the obvious greatness of the Gibbs era and for good reason. I am old enough to have watched the entire George Allen era which, while not nearly good as Gibbs', was pretty damn good in its own right.
Even Pardee, the coach between Allen and Gibbs, went .500, Better than nearly all of Snyder's coaches. In reality, 1971 to 1992 was a golden era.
Then the trifecta of doom arrived. Gibbs retired, we left RFK, and then Cooke died. Except for a few fleeting moments of joy here and there, it has been horrid.
I had Danny's number after the Marty/Jeff George debacles. But I hung on because it was still the Redskins.
Now even that is just about gone.
