Nope. They will always be the Redskins to me. Will never buy anything with the new name and will never call them by their new name.

Disagree if WFT sticks it means the team is really the Redskins. Many, maybe most still consider them to be the Redskins right now. Heck you see it happen by the announcers in almost every game and even during the draft one of the the Redskins announcers almost let it slip.
So keep WFT. (Also it pokes a finger into the eyes of the Cultural Revolutionaries (those guys need a little woke book they can wave in the air to complete the picture of who they are)).

"In my opinion, if THE Washington Football Team remains, so does the history. While the name is bland, it does allow the team and history to remain. Creating a new logo and name is basically creating a new brand.

Yes, the Lombardi trophies remain in Ashburn and the memories of players who dawned the Burgundy and Gold will always be in our heart. But a new name creates a new identity.

I don’t want a new identity. I want to be remembered as the team that had a name so great that it couldn’t be replaced.
"

Agreed.

Every "choice" in the fan new name polls SUCK DONKEY BALLS.

If we're going to be stuck with a name that SUCKS DONKEY BALLS, we should keep WASHINGTON FOOTBALL TEAM.

Re: WFT's Off-Season Thread

I'm fine with whatever name at this point, just pick something and get it over with.

Re: WFT's Off-Season Thread

Sorry but the "not picking a new name equals staying Redskins" is quite short sighted to me. It may work for you (but wouldn't it have a canada dry taste?), but what meaning would it have in 50 years for people being born now, and in 100 years for people born 50 years from now ? It'll keep sending back to a name that has zero meaning for them...

Plus, with how detailed a process Jason Wright has explained times and times again, I just don't think staying WFT is an option. They can't afford to go "You know the fans input we asked you to provide and were so proud to say how many we received ? We won't use them cause that's too expensive. You know the rebranding we talked about so much for a year and a half ? We won't do it cause it's too complicated. You know the new name we were supposed to reveal to the world soon and install for the 2022 season ? Well we don't have one so we'll keep the generic place holder"... Just not happening.

Re: WFT's Off-Season Thread

Many friends and family still saying redskins and skins, just what they will always be to me. I’ll never quit saying mostly based on the reasoning how it was changed. It wasn’t racist…that’s laughable horseshit every knows when u say Redskins you were only ever talking about the franchise in NFL.

Likewise I don’t mind anyone saying the new name or buying /wearing the new attire. It all good how we chose to celebrate the franchise.

Re: WFT's Off-Season Thread

Just bought a WFT hat, tee, and tank last night. If they change the name before the season starts that's gonna be hilarious. Shit will become retro in less than 4 months time.

Go Team!

They already said the WFT name was staying for 2021. They might announce the new name before the season starts but it won't be in effect before 2022 season.
