I can't wait till training camp so this discussion can take a back seat. But I also wish they would just announce the decision and be done with it...

Anything with red in it will likely be avoided considering we've already tiptoed away from warriors. I'm just tired of all this (hyper) sensitivity. I was just kidding about avoiding wolves due to it being tied to NA's but I'm sure someone out there will have their panties in a bunch over it.

Add a W with blood dripping down it to the moon, and not have a dorky guy wearing the shirt and the second one wouldn't look bad.

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins



This poster is fucking awesome. I don't care what anyone says.

Every name is going to sound weird for the 1st year.

This is the name for me (already was my favorite choice).

So cringe , it legit seems like HS football team. I'm sure we would get used to it but the thought of howling at games is so bad.

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

"I would say that we're definitely not orienting around a hashtag," Wright said. "We're not trying to work something backwards into something that starts with 'R' or anything like that."

As Wright and the team continue to get closer to picking a name, the team president promises to continue being transparent along the way.

"We'll let you know as things progress, where there are hard lines and where we've put hard lines in place," Wright said. "We'll be clear"

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

If it's down to WFT vs Washington Wolves I'd prefer FT but I won't hate Wolves.

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

I think it's very possible the new name is something not really on the radar.

Just curious as to why you think that. I think it’s an almost perfect match.

Perfect match to what? The colors, maybe, the city? No So many other opportunities to rep the city better than an animal that is not indigenous. With all the history in that city there are far better options.

Cleveland naming the team the Guardians is a name that was off the radar for them. The Spiders and Blues has been thrown around for the last year and they picked a name off the radar, my hope is that is what happens here.
