Um, can we get back to the name reveal point of the thread? I agree with the sentiment about leaving politics in a different thread.

If it is Commanders, I’ll be disappointed as I think the name isn’t particularly interesting. But I wouldn’t let it get in the way of rooting for the team. I hope others don’t either.


Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkSorry, I am becoming more convinced that I will not root for a team owned by DS named the Commanders. The name fits DS as an egotistical man who thinks the world revolves around him. Further it would be the height of arrogance to use the tag line "the people's team" while completely disregarding the fans inputs for the rebrand. Lots of lip service, then put it on the fans for the team's unwillingness to do what it took to get one of the main fan names (not necessarily wolves/redwolves).

This year under Jason Wright and RR the team still operated with disregard to their fans, focused on petty disputes (benches) and disparaged a team great(ST21) to cover up bad ownership.

I will always cherish the memories of the great Redskins teams but this organization doesn't deserve to be the commanders of that legacy's respect.

The vast majority of fans relate the name commanders solely to the military etc .. and that very well may be what the team wants( if the do indeed go with the name)
There also is another slant to the name .. The city was named after George Washington the first President .. He was the Commander in chief of the country ( in peace time and war) ..
I could be totally wrong but the name could be a Nod to the First President.. just a thought

I like the black. I also hope they have an all black uni for prime time games. That could look bad ass

Trying to not politics here in 2022, and politics are being brought to every thread.

You, politics and 2022. It is like you are living your very own Final Destination movie

I am heading that way too. With Commanders or the like, we are getting a new team owned by Daniel Snyder.

Let me be clear. If the team was sold to, let's say, Jeff Bezos, John Kent Cooke, or Whoever and was named Commanders, I would cheer it on.

It all comes down to Snyder now. This is a chance for a clean break from what has been a nightmare owner.

If I hated Snyder that much I would never ever pull for his team ..no matter what the name even Redskins , Truth is if anyone thinks there aren’t other owners that are just as bad then think agian .. it’s also the other owners who let Dan stay in the league .. the NFL in general is a billionaire good ole boys club .lots to dislike about Pro sports overall ..

Leaving the DC team doesn't mean I am going jump onto another team that has crappy ownership, heck doesn't even mean I am jumping to another team at all, just that I am going to try not to be emotionally invested in this team.

The evidence indicates otherwise. There is no other owner who has a record of arrogance, sleazery, and just plain stupidity as Daniel Snyder.

And Daniel Snyder is not a jerk because he is rich. Were that so, then men like Warren Buffet would be reviled too. Snyder is a jerk because that is what he is.

I do not pretend to know why.
