The name and uniforms are so far down on my list of priorities to turning this organization around.

Another name won't be a stain left by Snyder. The name Commanders will always be a stain, so that is why it must be replaced.

Winning is the ultimate cleaner of the Snyder stain, along with being a quality organization top to bottom.

Of course you're right but if the new owners want a new name and new uniforms that would be fine with me as long as they don't want something uninspired. The silly looking pig with the horrible name must go whether or not the new owners make any other changes.

If the new owner's priority is to change the name, then we're in trouble. There are a TON of priorities for this new ownership team to deal with. Thankfully it seems that this is not a priority whatsoever for Harris and Co.

I'm honestly sick of the name talk, it is only being brought up by delusional fans who think somehow they are going to bring the old name back, sulky fans that didn't get their choice, and media folks who just want to stir the pot for clicks.

Also, Snyder put on a bigger stain on this team by his toxic/abusive work culture/environment, the YEARS of losing on and off the field, and him gutting this team financially to support his lifestyle. So people need to GTFOH with the whole "the name is a Snyder stain" BS.

If the team starts winning, no one is going to give a flying f*ck about the team name.

This is how I feel. The misogynistic work place he created is a far bigger issue to me. As a son, husband and father his shitty treatment he tolerated of women has been a far bigger issue. I could care less about the name. I am way over that.

If you are looking at growth from a business perspective that is also a far bigger issue than the name. Casual fans don't want to be associated with that. If the Commanders want to compete for viewership and attendance in a very different demographic than they did when they were top of the heap in the 80s and 90s they will have to make the experience worthwhile. Winning is obviously important to fans like us but casual fans are what drives dollars.

Imagine he will take his toxic work environment with him when he leaves. The name he will leave behind which is a Snyder stain that will still need to be removed.

I thought it was bad as well but have you ever googled NFL mascots, try it. there are so really bad ones out there.

Example:

I never realized the number of teams with stupid mascots.

That's why it's great. It can be used in all sorts of references!
