“The new name will be authentic to DC”[/QUOTE]What does that even mean. Particularly in combination with the earlier statement that it will be inclusive for Md VA and DC .

Amy name they give will be "authentic" or are they going to name them the DC Cowboys. While hilarious definitely not authentic.

Yeah hard to read that but I’m over the whole thing. Just name then already

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins
 

Monuments… is my new guess, that is the only thing authentic to DC … no animal is unique to DC …the Jason Wright hint is huge .. think about it the commanders, defenders , Armada, brigade …are they unique to DC? ( I don’t know)I could see the Hogs in the name but he did not say authentic to the redskins tradition or even talk about tradition .. authentic to DC ??? Let’s think about that … obviously the Washington Monument, The Pentagon, Potomac river, the capital ( the capitals) , it could be something military ( veteran related) .. I gotta believe it’s not gonna be redwolves, red hogs or anything like that .. the new hint from Wright is intriguing indeed … we gonna be surprised

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins
 

By the way in my opinion the greatest team name of all time is The Buffalo Bills !!! That is brilliant!

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins
 

Authentic is not the same as unique. And authentic is just a weird word choice. Are bears authentic to Chicago? Are giants authentic to NY (of course the NYG aren't authentic to New York since they are in New Jersey [emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787]) Are Rams authentic to LA?

The answer to all those are no, and it doesn't matter.

PS. Monuments is a stupid name . Let's call our football team a set of statues. Good call.

Interesting point by Finlay. What if fans of Washington Wolves name start howling after touchdowns Friday night. What if it takes off in the stadium during the season. Would that sway the team?

The Washington Monument is the most visible landmark in DC … as well as the capital.. when the Capitals were named I’m sure they had a lot of negativity.. authentic to DC .. let’s hear what you got for a name with that in mind … the bears, giants were names at the very start of pro football .. easy to see how they came up with that .. A name that’s authentic to DC .. hmmm 🤔

I can make Wolves authentic by pointing to a local university and high school that use Wolves in there logos. (Yes there is one of those) or make it authentic by referring to the characteristics of a Wolfpack. That was my point with the term authentic, the team can, and will, define authenticity to fit the name they choose.

If the name is Monuments I’m going to be worse than pissed.

I just had an epiphany. New name: Washington Chuck Norris (singular, b/c there is only one Chuck). The real Chuck can be our talisman (b/c Chuck is not a mascot) and when we play we will always win because if we are down in the 4th quarter he will roundhouse kick the other team’s players in the face and no referee will dare throw a flag. 💪🏻

All those names suck except Red Wolves but I'd rather just have Wolves

Yeah every single time our Quarterback gets sacked while hanging in the pocket we will hear “well he sure looked like a monument there”. No fucking thank you.

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins
 

Okay 😀… I get it but I think you guys are overthinking the monument name … you can put a negative spin on about any name .. its just a light hearted conversation at least it’s not about covid 😳.. whatever the name I’ll be here pulling for the Burgundy & Gold …the comment Coach made about cartoonish look … another hint I think he was looking at a wolf pic …

This takes out Redwolves, Redtails, Redhogs, Wolfs, Wolves Please put that shit to bed. Actually I can't wait for the new name just so we don't have to hear of these names ever again.

More like Washington Carjackers. There were over 300 of them inside the District last year. Around 100 this year.

Could you imagine that logo?
