Re: WFT's Off-Season Thread
They've always been (since they moved there) the Washington Football Team. What they are saying is that you can tell us to remove our name, but we refuse to rename the team. We'll just be the Washington Football Team. And that means they will always be known as the Redskins as the name was never replaced.

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.

Re: WFT's Off-Season Thread
Clicking the image is even worse than trying to read it from the page. God damn.
https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/...ites-fan-sennt 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.

Re: WFT's Off-Season Thread
"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.

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.

John Keim
@john_keim · 33m 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 |
