Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

So should we believe arrows is being seriously considered too?

No the writer specifically said that while other images were shown they all could easily be discounted so the wolves logo was the one placed repeatedly and is not in an already excluded category such as direct native American reference.

Marketing placement like that is subtle, but definitely used to make points with an audience.

No, as I said, Arrows and Redspears are out for same reason Warriors is. This video was the one announcing Warriors was out because of NA imagery, so you know these two are out too.

My simple point was I wouldn't draw any hard conclusions from those pictures.

Oh no as I said it's a Twitter video, not a team statement. Trying not to overread, but those are signals consciously sent out there. And they wouldn't be sending those messages without any reason.

But yeah, maybe the name is something not in this video nor any other team social media post... I still think after all the emphasis about the process, the website the journey, fans inclusion and so on, picking a name that didn't get significant support in the fan base would be surprising to say the least...

Anyway, I've made no mystery I've been a supporter of Redwolves/Wolves since the beginning, and I just think we have a lot of elements suggesting it's at the very least in the mix.
