Yep , I submitted my little fan thingy and said to keep the name as is. I'm actually a huge fan of it

That is exactly what it means. I can live with that.

When you put it like that, I love the idea.

And maybe someday the liberal cancel culture will fizzle out and we can reinstall the name. Very unlikely, but lets be hopeful.

Any time we can give them a big FU, I'm all for it.

I still call them the Redskins and always will.

If you think this is because of cancel culture you are sorely missing the point.

My big takeaway from this is those of us who don't like the name WFT aren't making as much noise as those who do. Time to speak up before they bring the most unoriginal name in sports history into permanence.

"Some of the things that are emerging from that are the Washington Football Team has something that ties deeply to our history. It feels like that isn't jettisoning all the things we have been in the past, whereas something that's completely new might feel that way," Wright told Keim.

Re: WFT's Off-Season Thread

I don't think they were ever going to really change it, Wright is spot on when he says they don't wan't to erase the history with a brand new name..

Warriors , Redwolves etc would be basically a whole new franchise. Redskins will never be replaced so just keep it WFT, the folks that hate it will eventually get used to it and like it as well.

That's been my thinking for a while now. A new name means new logo, new identity, new everything, the past is a distant memory.

I like keeping the link to the past by not replacing Redskins.

Re: WFT's Off-Season Thread

I'd prefer to pick a team name. But I'm fine with Washington Football Team too. They can name them anything and they will still be my favorite team until the day I die.

Washington's quest to add more offensive talent could include New England WR N'Keal Harry. The team is monitoring his situation, according to multiple sources. The 6-foot-4 Harry, a first-round pick in 2019, hasn't produced and could be traded

I wouldn't oppose to this move if we give up something like 5th round pick or later.. And this could mean that the coaches don't have a lot of faith in AGG and/or Harmon.

I don’t understand trading for a guy who would just be depth? That makes zero sense. They rather trade for depth and not a guy like Ertz who would be a major role on offense


Pass on this...draft a guy instead
