Washington may change their name again

[Concord]

If I just bought that team I would change it so fast it would make your head swim.
Commander's is terrible.

 

[stinkface]

Washington Polecats.

I heard the Redhawks was very close to winning last time. Probably should have. Seems better than the Commanders. Reminds me of Buzz Lightyear or something.

No can do.... red hawks every where will be offended.

Everyone knows how Charlie Brown's teachers sound when they're talking. If anyone can figure out how to spell the sound just call them that.

 

[Scotman]

All kidding aside , that’s actually not a bad idea.

The Hogs could come back.

 

[Typhus]

Could be PigSnouts.

The Hogs would be a natural fit.

 

[Zekeats]

Commanders

Any name change requires at least 24 current NFL ownership groups to approve it. So much for “your head swim”.

There was nothing offensive about the original name. I am one third Cherokee. And no Native American was offended.

First, that's not true that NO Native American was offended. I can't post the link to the story of those who do, but it's easy to find with a Google search.

Second, you don't speak for every Native American.

Third, the name has a history of which I cannot go into detail.

Fourth, the name isn't coming back. And soon a generation that wishes it to return will be gone, replaced by a generation that doesn't really care. Such is the way of change.

They should have called themselves the Potatoskins.

They could keep their skins nickname and it would make sense with potatoe fans in their endzone

That's all we need - Washington fans throwing potatoes after every Cowboys touchdown.

Keeping it real - The Washington Warriors. For the good of our division and NFL Football let dignity be restored and erase Snyder's childish ownership over the years.

Seems like there's a lot of complications with the "Warriors" moniker as someone appears to have already trademarked it.

[GimmeTheBall!]

Washington Dumplings since that city has been turned into a dump.

Right you are, govnor. Unruly people who say they are tourists. If I were a tourist, I'd bein Branson, bow howdy, chaps.

 

[Bullflop]

I think the Washington Hogs, or Washington Pigskins are both good fits for them.

 

[Bullflop]

What about the DC Wild Hogs?

 

[Bullflop]

Somehow, the "Abusers" seems somewhat appropriate . . .

 

[Montanalo]

Washington Monuments

 

[RonWashington]

Washington Lobbyists .

They can buy it from them. Warriors is one of the best names they could use to keep in line with their theme. But hey, I guess they just want to change all of it.

They can. But the price tag is going to be astronomical. And therein lies the hesitation. But I like the Warriors too.

I think it all depends on who holds the trademark, right? If it's someone like me, you offer me a million bucks, i'll take it. I'm not rich, but I'm in the top 10-15% in net worth going by the statistics. I'm not going to turn down a million dollar offer. I don't think the cost would be astronomical unless the owner is already wealthy.
