2024 Commanders Off-Season Thread

Surely the pr people who let him walk in front of the presser weren't oblivious either. It's clear they are trying to figure out a way to re-engage the fan base and if it means keeping commanders they're going to struggle for a long time in my opinion.

edit: Also the people who are selling that shirt are going to make money where the Washington doesn't, Or vice versa if they are selling it through a third party and trying to gauge interest My brother JoeRedskin already bought that shirt, nd he hasn't bought Washington gear since the any of the changes, so I have a feeling it's going to have more interest than anything the Washington Commander sells

Me either, (any non redskins stuff anyway) ..... and I'd buy that shirt.

People in the military have worn feathers on their uniforms before. Those shirts are awesome. You're crazy.

I used to argue the etymology thesis, then came around to the simple realization that the days of one race using another race as a mascot are over.

That is not what the discussion was about. What kicked this off was a claim that Redskins is a derogatory term. It's not and I provided enough evidence that shows it is not.

Ultimately, this whole discussion is off of the thread topic and could have been dropped, but the name issue still burns a lot of fans.

That's what it boils down to, wild to me some still think anything NA related would actually fly as a potential new name.

I think new ownership is hoping for a quick turnaround, nothing will distract from the name like winning and an exciting young star QB. I also think a revamp of the uniforms is much more likely than another full re-branding.

I would happily settle for a stud team and a uniform revamping. Honestly think the whole rebranding thing was mailed in, that whole "fan suggestions" thing was bs and Snyder liked Commanders from day one. The uniforms gotta be the most uninspiring look ever. Burgundy and gold was iconic and there wasn't a damn thing wrong with the colors.

If we get a competitive team and the uniforms are re-done I'll drop the name change argument.

And as I said I'll always throw the bullshit flag when that one (false) point is made. And anyone that knows that point is BS should always confront it when it is made.

This is pure opinion, not fact. And you’re shouting at clouds anyway - the name is gone and not coming back. It makes no sense to argue about any of this. We should be discussing the rookie minicamp, the upcoming schedule, Newton’s surgery, how Jacoby continues to get screwed by the HOF - basically anything related to football instead of rehashing this nonsense.

The name is not “fine”. It’s easily the weakest/stupidest name in the NFL, mirroring the clown who foisted it on us.
