My bad, listening to his latest pod episode right now, he says from a source.

How they should handle it is just shut up and don't say anything. They're trying to string along the fans and create a buzz and it's kinda drained itself out. I really don't even care at this point. The name change is dead to me.

I think that is part of their goal. It is like putting out the ashes of the fire, you have to get it completely out or it will reignite. In this case I am talking about reigniting passion around Redskins.

Agreed. Weirdly enough I think both can be true:
-they want to create expectations and anticipation about the new name so when it's released it's talked about.
-they are consciously making it last longer than needed, so people get tired of it and even the most adamant anti-name change and those who had a strong preference different than their final choice go "meh, at least we finally have a new name and can move on" and accept it (to various degrees and after various amounts of time).
