Can you imagine for one sec how pathetic and unprofessional they would look if it took them 2 years and trillions of fans (+almuni, sponsors etc...) input, to say, "hey you know what ? We didn't need all that amazing, thorough and absolutely indispensable process we talked about so much, the temporary name we had found in 2 weeks works just fine" ?

(If you like WFT, that's fine, it's a subjective thing, just saying from a process and coherence standpoint it doesn't stand a chance).

Its about much more than just picking a name and from what the Sports Junkies (a local DC sports talk show) were saying the tricky thing isn't the name, its the trademark for that name. A big problem with something like WFT is that its too generic to be trademarked (like trademarking yellow lemon) but it also sounds like there are ways to tighten up the trademark application. I would not rule out them using the name WFT or WFC. What I would rule out is anything with the word "red" in it.
