Should have gone with something cool and unique. What about the Hogs name? Washington Hogs with a cool wild boar as their uniform? Washington Red Wolves with a neat wolf? Washington Red Tails and a cool plane to pay tribute to the tuskeegee airmen? Washington Presidents with a logo of Teddy Roosevelt wrestling or boxing a bear? That's what I was really gunning for. There's nobody on the planet that wouldn't love that logo.

Instead they've picked a red and yellow logo, in the nation's capital, and a name that starts with the letters "Comm", which definitely will not lead to jokes. None at all. I am in total agreement with this choice, comrades. Washington will seize the means of a Lombardi with their new name.

Some of the blame can be placed on the trademark squatters who went out and trademarked every rumored name WFT was considering.

If WFT had been smart, they would have announced that WFT was going to remain their official team name and that they had stopped looking for a new name.

Then they could have waited out the trademark squatters for a couple of years to give up and let all of the trademarks expire and then they could have gotten a name they really wanted.

If I had Snyder money I'd just pay them and be done. I cant imagine not being able to buy a better name. Lol

The Washington Commodes of Assburn, VA (ok, Ashburn… but you get the idea.)

I like what you did there

This is a win for the rest of the NFC East that gets to play these fools twice every season. "Commanders" is a dumb name. :facepalm:

I had suggested the Washington WhammaJammas but I guess they didn't like it?

I really think they should be the Lame Ducks.

Lol their fans hate it. They got a poll on their forum and over 90% don't like the name

Awful choice. It just does not have a ring to it. Washington Warriors would have been better and that is pretty bad too.
