Just keep WFT. We have two years of it already. Sometimes there is virtue in being boring and this is one of those times.

As was pointed out, a minor league soccer team has been using Redwolves for two plus years while the lawyers work out the details.

I think they've had enough headaches with the name and just want to start fresh with no hurdles in the way.

Like I said, depends on what they announce.

not to mention they've just been doing battle over the previous team name for like 3 decades. I don't want to give Snyder any benefit of the doubt, but I agree.

lol ok, for you perhaps

But for the team, they've already told us wolves wasn't worth their time

Or they simply didn't like it enough, probably a combo of both

As much has I hate Snyder, it's his team, ultimately he can name it whatever he wants

He can, he can continue to put trash on the field too. I can choose otherwise.

To be clear, I hope they can get it right and the name is outstanding.

Re: Name Reveal 2.2.22

Credskins.. I hear you and don’t disagree .. however you don’t like the commanders name but I’m sure others do ..in fact a lot of my friends like the military type theme ..so to you it would be worth it to fight the name in court .. nothing wrong with having a opinion .. and for the record my fav name was warriors then Redwolves .. but both got canned .let’s just hope it’s not horrible like the groundhogs 😀

I don't even recall fans saying "Commanders or Admirals"

The team knew all along it wouldn't use fans input lol

Re: Name Reveal 2.2.22

If you look in the video it does look like a W on the helmet in that reflection... Still hard to tell tho

Re: Name Reveal 2.2.22

This team has me so beatdown that I can't imagine liking anything they put out.

After the unveiling, we get 7 months of "winning" and marketing campaigns.
A few weeks of training camps and new unis that will probably look cool.

Guess what we get opening night against the Cowboys in a prime time game?

Re: Name Reveal 2.2.22

Commanders is pretty generic to me, but I'm waiting to judge the entire package, new uniforms and the logo too. I'm liking what we're seeing so far regarding the uniforms. This mock up looks nice with the gold numbers and the shoulder stripes

I'm pro-Hogs. Obviously we have nothing to look forward to for the next 40 years under Dan's ownership, so anything that allows us to reminisce about the glory days is good by me.

Redtails? Sounds like hemorrhoids.
