Come up with a new name for the Redskins

Yeah, they don't even need to pick the winner. Would just be for fun. I just want to know what the 3 options are. Don't want to wait 6 months. Really blue-balling us here.

Good thing we have live football to distract us while we wait.

I think it's going to be Wolves, maybe RedWolves, and these videos are ways of prepping the fan base. Spartans was mainly from fan comments, not anything specific.

Initially I was receptive to Redwolves, but now it just seems like an easy copout to appeal to Redskins fans. Like "if we keep it close to Redskins, we won't lose as many fans."

There's gotta be an original name out there that can still be great without disparaging some group of people. I want a clean start. A nu start, if you will.

Don't let us down yet again Dan.

Wait, you don't like it because it appeals to Redskins fans? I am sure that isn't what you meant, but it sounds weird.

I actually think it's going to be wolves. I know I am micro-analyzing that video, but in the first flip frame part you see a Wolves submission. Then they show RedHogs (seriously has anyone said Red Hogs???) and the fan says, I like it if they drop the Red.

Subtle things like that are ways media makers influence subtly.

They are leading us to accept Washington Wolves, and I think that's an awesome name.

Idk about that. Isn’t any pro sports name interchangeable with any hs sports name? Matter of fact my Highschool was the Raiders. I think the Seahawks is a fuckin great name. Redwolves reminds me of it. What is more bad ass than howling? Lotta people thought the band was corny as hell.
Anyway lucky for you i have absolutely no say in the new name, but like C-red said you better get used to it…..

Sorry but wolf sounds is just so damn cringe. That will get old after about a couple weeks. HTTR was iconic and was only played after a score. People will be doing this wolf bit all night long, after every sack, after every first down, after every score. No ....just no.... Don't do it. If you change Redskins then you have to go away from RED.. just move away from it. You can not keep HTTR and go Hail to the Redwolves. That is also cringe... Even Redhogs, just don't do it.

I’m with not using Red in Any name … it seems so desperate to hold on to the “RED”skin connection … at this point Wolves , defenders , monuments, senators, commandos, Spartans, generals, Brigade, Burgundy&Gold , Pride, DC Pride, anything but RED …

SkinsfaninOK is that official? Can't find it on the WFT site. Those 8 are the ones that were in the brand video so it's possible someone just assumes that?

WFT - just keep it.

If not, then Redwolves or Wolves. I'm just ready for a decision. I'm not bailing either way so it doesn't really matter.

Well, I might if it's the Presidents...that's just dumb.

The Defenders is my dark horse pick … I gotta feeling

Agreed.

Sorry Cred but I don't think wolves have any connection to the DC area. I'm sure historically red wolves might be near the area, but I've been here for over 3 decades and have yet to hear about a single wolf sighting. I would like to have some significance to the area if that's the route we're going.

If we're picking from the list my top 3 are Armada, Brigade, and Defenders. We can still keep the colors without keeping Red in the name. Thats my other point Cred - keeping Red in the name feels like an appeal to older Skins fans that have lost their loyalty to the team.
