I swear a lot of our fandom mirrors our shitty owner/team.

And yes, let's please move on.

Well to be fair, this is a Washington Commanders forum, and this is Locker Room talk, and as a fan - having to watch my Redskins fade in the rear view mirror and to now be called something else, is the worst thing I could have ever imagined for this team when I became a fan in 1982.

It is not the worst thing ever though.

Maybe I'm too traumatized from the dumbfuckery I've seen in the Snyder era, that to me this seems such a minor thing compared to the major blunders this team and ownership have had.

People have the right to be upset, and I get it, the name change sucks and no one is going to be happy. But to seriously say this is the worst thing ever is borderline ridiculous.

Agreed. It sucks, but Redskins was dumped 2 years ago, and Commanders has been at the top of the rumor list for anyone willing to pay attention for the last few months.

I get it, initial reactions to any sort of significant change tend to be over the top and even absurd, mostly slanted to the negative side of things. In time the name will sound normal, and we'll get used to the uniforms too. A name or uniform isn't going to win us any games, so ultimately the thing that really matters in trying to build a winner hasn't changed at all.

Yeah, I'm not even that mad about it. I don't really like it, but it is what it is. I'm on board, just want them to win and become a respected franchise again. It's not going to happen overnight, if it happens at all, but I hope we're trending in the right direction.
