Matty has affectionately named him Dick Bogus.

I hope Rich told Jon what a dipshit he was

Maybe the name decision was a harbinger of the fan base leaving. I was a fan of the Redskins but that team no longer exists, I don't know what team plays in DC now.

Because whatever name they put on it, Snyder's team is not the team I grew up supporting, cheering and enjoying the hell out of.

If this team was smart , they would release the new name during the bye week.. They have to keep the fans engaged somehow and right now 75% or more of this fanbase is legit done.

Might be better to wait until the offseason so they can ride the annual offseason hype train a while. Do it now and they are sticking a label on a turd that will forever have the stink of a rudderless franchise

I really don't want the new name being associated with this current piece of shit product they're putting on the field. Delay it until we get good in 2025.

Don't be surprised to see a making of the brand video drop.

It sure is. I saw a commercial on tv over the weekend advertising good seats available for WFT games. I never thought I'd live to see the day WFT would have advertise to sell game tickets. Forget about selling those tickets, they couldn't give them away.

Nah it would associate the new team to this massive failure of a season, and with any name you can find jokes and puns when they get destroyed on the field 3 days after announcing the name.

From a marketing stand point, the smart thing to do is stick to the calendar and announce it before the start of free agency, have people excited about something, give them hope that with the new name everything will change, and you have 6 months to build it up before they get humiliated on the field again.

Agreed.

Any announcement now would be seen like the retirement of Sean Taylor's number: a distraction from the chaos.

THIS

Whatever the new name is it will be 50/50 with folks liking the new name.

I am saying it right now if the new name is shit IMO, I am done. I was born and raised in new England, pretty much now that Tom B is gone it seems like a reasonably time to jump on their ship. Before i thought it be too fair weather like to do.

I feel like the name going away from Redskins is the end of my fanhood. I will always be a REDSKINS fan but not a WFT or Redwolves or Warlocks or Red Hogs or whatever stupid shit they come up with.

Does anyone here really thing they are gone do a good job on the name? I mean seriously, its going to be fucking stupid.

I can understand that, and that's interlinked to many personal things, but for me, obviously the name was one of the big reasons why I became a fan of this team, so I asked myself "will I still be a fan after they change that ?" (and this is why I got onboard so fast on campaigning for a new name I like. If you take away something I like, I wanna do whatever I can so the replacement is something I like too)... but I just can't see myself rooting for another team... all other 31 teams are rivals to some extent... it just would feel too weird. Having no connection to anywhere in particular in the US (expect DC now that I got to witness a 40 to 16 beat down at FedEx ^^) also makes it feel senseless to just pick a random team now.

I became a fan of this team as I was discovering this sport, just felt like this was my team, colors, name, logo, run oriented team back then with Clinton Portis... Just felt right.

Now after nearly 13 years watching this team, rooting for another one wouldn't feel legit, like trying to fool myself... But if I'm being honest, if they pick something boring AF à la Presidents or Commanders... the logo better be really badass, and the team better start winning soon otherwise it'll be hard to stay as engaged as I am now...

For the record i would not leave solely over the name change. ITs more DS and the shit this has become. I just feel like the team i grew up and so many folks associate me with loving is the REDSKINS. In my head its just a good break, its the end of the REDSKINS and the start of XXXXX a team solely run and owned by Mr. Shithead.

I literally cheer for every other pro New England team probably time to just include the NFL in that group.
