Well I seriously doubt you made up for it as the C word merchandise is dead last in NFL sales.

Thinking that anything NA related would be ok is almost as bad as thinking Redskins was coming back.

The NA ship has sailed with this franchise folks.

Im thinking nobody knows what Summo does that is going back n forth with him? Lol
He never said that Commanders merch was flying off of any shelves.

I think the problem with Commanders is the minority percentage of fans that enjoy the name aren't nearly as vocal as the ones who dislike the name. So when Josh Harris is mostly hearing "change the name!" repeatedly since he bought the team eventually it wears on him.

I don’t think there are people who enjoy the name. I just think there are people who dislike it less. Certainly nobody who is or was jumping for joy about it. It really just doesn’t flow. Im still amazed it was chosen, especially after All those fan polls, etc. They made it seem like the fan base was involved than Commanders comes out of left field.

I’m in indifferent to the name. Very similar to how I feel about Capitals, wizards and orioles it is just there
