Re: Welcome your Washington Commanders
Here is just an image of the home jersey by itself. I do like these. Nice and simple.
I like the W and the helmets too. Fix the pants.

Re: Welcome your Washington Commanders
I prefer a stripe on the pants, never liked the mono look from pants to the socks. Like the Saints when they go all black, just looks like something is missing.

Re: Welcome your Washington Commanders
I figured out why not Wolves.
A long time ago, a wolf was slang for a guy who was on the prowl for women to get just one thing. The association to the front office's behavior towards women is almost identical to the slang term. Lets face it, our front office males were already Washington Wolves. There are dozens of women that would easily already agree to that most accurate nickname. Same goes for pigs of any kind. I personally loved Warriors, and I did like Redwolves. Commanders is just punting on 1st down. They didn't even try. It is so sad. My personal only hope is that the NFL forces Snyder to sell and he does, and the owner either buys the team, moves it away and puts a nail in this comatose franchise, or....the a new owner keeps them here and pushes all the right buttons to get a name the fanbase actually requested. Commanders is flat out dog crap, it fits the team's reputation perfectly. It is a shame. One of the most storied franchises in all of sports, with one of the classiest hall of fame coach and best teams ever, erased systematically mistake by horrible mistake over 20 years. My daughter showed me their high school football branding and said it looked better. She was right, I asked who did it, she said the marketing club...high school students! I have noticed many big time warpath names seriously considering time to get off the titanic. We hit the iceberg long ago. Consider me in that same group. I bailed commenting here for a couple years and came back. I am glad you are all here and appreciate being part of a great and educated online community. We all have our reasons to stick with this team through anything, but I kinda equate it to being a lifelong republican who bailed because of Trump, but is still hanging on hope that things get back to respectability. The similarities with what Dan Snyder has done, especially ego and letch wise is uncanny. I am a big believer in you reap what you sow, and that includes integrity and respect. Nothing about this says respect for fans. What it says is do everything you can possibly do to cover up and protect a man who has shown nothing but an interest in himself at the expense of all others, including all of us. This team is still a serious problem to the NFL, and women, and minorities (native americans) Any decent owner would have been able to garner respect from native americans enough to get us to simply change name to warriors or something that is not considered a slur. We could keep the proud identity. But Danny just doesn't garner any respect and only changed names when threatened by big business (not even the fans themselves). Changing a name does not change the owner. Firing everyone in the front office but keeping the same owner is merely to cover his butt. Hiring a black GM is certainly a plus, but it sounds like the same words of every other yes man he has hired. So Danny checks off some boxes, women coach, black GM, woman spokesperson. That's all great, but the leader of the team remains the same. He is a narcissist. All about me. Unfortunately, that rarely changes. The only way this team truly changes is to make the one and now only change that has not been made. Get rid of Danny. I propose that he sell shares of the team to the fans, until we own at least 51% Then, and only then will the glory years be in our future. Thank you all for your awesome comments and comraderie over the years. It has been great. I may go into a self induced Redskins coma for a while again. Happy New year and Hail to the Redskins!

Re: Welcome your Washington Commanders
The park and party or whatever it’s called was a hit apparently.. A large amount of fans were there from looking at Twitter

Re: Welcome your Washington Commanders
The extremism on both sides is so funny and frustrating. On twitter right now it's basically "I hate this commie expansion team! I'll never ever ever cheer for them" or "WE ARE COMMANDERS! I drew this picture of a hog and it should be our new mascot, thank you Jason Wright for including us!"
Also, a stark reminder that this is the best Washington Football community around

Re: Welcome your Washington Commanders
I'm a bit concerned over my reaction to this. I had/have taken the position to just ignore the name change and it worked for me when it was just Team, but now I'm finding my interest in the franchise just not there and it is not a conscience deliberate reaction. I'd normally be pouring over draft prospects but have no inclination this year - I just don't care what they do in the draft or free agency. Wondering if this will carry over into the season. Damn shame because I want to care - but just don't.

Re: Welcome your Washington Commanders
New banner is sick ! Nice work Summo !
I know I'll get used to/on board with this new name over time, but I'm gonna need some nice things to help get me into it, and I have to say those visuals are real nice!
