Snyder (the absolute worst owner in all of sports) to stay on a owner

If someone bought the Bears and then tried to change their name, their press and fans would crucify him.

In contrast, if someone bought the Commanders and changed the name to <insert your favorite>, he would be nominated for sainthood.

They might be nominated for sainthood right up until they chose a name like River Rats, or Storm Clouds. You are dreaming if you think any owner cares about what team name the fans want. They will work with the NFL to come up with whatever name can get a trademark.

Of course its an unfair comparison but the statement was that whenever someone buys a team they have the ability to change the name because they spent a boatload of of $. That's just not true.

I personally do not believe Danny is going anywhere. I hope I am wrong. So this is all just conjecture.

Having said that, if Snyder is going to be removed, that time is coming soon. Since that time is soon, the paint on anything Commanders is still dry. Throw in that the name is widely considered lackluster.

So, new owner comes in. What better way to kick things off then to ditch this silly name and get a better one? Also serves to relegate the Danny era to the trash heap.

Silly? Sure, a bit. But no sillier than what some other teams have done such as multiple relocations or erecting statues to criminals.

Dreaming? Most certainly. But so is thinking that if the Commanders just get a decent QB, they will flourish, Snyder notwithstanding. The last quarter century clearly disproves that.

Dreams are all we have left my Irish friend.

No truer statement has ever been posted on this site.

Looks likes he wants to stay. And why not paying cash?

He is moving down stream a good ways!
I wonder if he is fine with the view or will he cut down more trees ?
