“The name will be announced very soon, I know they are placing an order for all of the stuff soon”[/quote]

I'm guessing it means as soon as the season ends. They said early 2022 multiple times, I don't see why they would take any chance and announce it earlier:

-If they start losing then the new name is a curse and they had better stuck with the no name...
-If they keep on winning, well build on the enthusiasm and have something to keep fans engaged up until FA and the draft !

I see no benefit for them in announcing it before the season ends. Including the potential playoffs ([I]playoffs?![/I]).

I thought they would announce it like in March, or just before the draft... maybe this "very soon" means January/February, which in term of finalizing the launching of a multi billion dollars franchise, is indeed "very soon".

Hopefully they announce it within a week of our last game, whenever that may be.

The Washington Arrogant Bastards

The Bastards…just rolls off the tongue nicely

I hope it’s the Commanders, I actually really dig that name.

Agree, sooooo much better then red Wolves.

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins
 

Very unconfirmed rumor but Washington Commanders is trending on Twitter right now because someone's sister's brother's cousin at New Era is mass producing Commanders gear.

[QUOTE=mredskins;1300906]Agree, sooooo much better then red Wolves.[/QUOTE]Disagree but at this point they have already decided and it will be whatever.

My take is that Commanders would be a very RR/DS choice. RedWolves (or Wolves) would mean they actually listened to the fans.

I’m with you 100%. Give me the wolves

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins
 

Wolves or commanders for me and yeah I saw that same Twitter rumor.. until the team releases the name I don’t believe shit

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins
 

I bet the will keep the W (like the bears do with the C) and use that as the main logo. Put that on the helmets and call themselves the commanders or whatever and have a 2nd logo (like the bears do) just a guess

Maybe I'm wrong, but it makes no sense to me that they would be "mass producing" anything right now. Like they would have everything ready and maybe a couple of jerseys ready for photo shoots... But it's 2021, they know if they mass produce anything it'll get leaked out, don't they ?

When was the last time even a minor a team uniform update was kept a secret?

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins
 

Who knows and honestly I really don't care anymore with this name thing.. It's beyond old, release it and move on

I have no idea :D Was the Cleveland Guardians one leaked ? What about the Seattle Kraken ? (I really don't know)

Which is exactly why waiting 2 years may very well be a smart marketing move. Wether we like it or not, almost every one of us will move on with the new name, cuz we've had enough waiting...
