Amazing how much drama a feather causes

Dopes like Florio are all worked up

it's not shocking considering how much antipathy there is toward the current name among the fan base. For the team to really move forward the management group needs to truly address it, either by saying the name is commanders period end, or by announcing a transition is coming soon.

It is such a non story. Kudos to Quinn for not really caring. Dude is just a football coach not a politician.

That the front office and ownership didn't immediately go into over the top PC damage limitation mode is also quite refreshing. "It is not official merchandise" is all they said.

Re: 2024 Commanders Off-Season Thread

just do Washington football team, Washington FC, Washington football and use it all interchangeably. W helmets look pretty good, so keep those, rest of it looks too college and should go (including the black)... if you want to stick feathers or whatever on merch, go for it (it's all a quiet protest, and I'm for it).

I like the W helmets in the burgundy color. The W is nice. We should keep that. The feathers as a quiet protest is about as subtle as an eviction notice.

Re: 2024 Commanders Off-Season Thread

I like the new hash tag raise hail, it works. Why the subtle reminders? Why not?

They don't need to pretend like the old name never existed. They should embrace what they can to bridge the gap to Commanders.

Well when someone claims that "Redskins was a derogatory term" I will always seek to educate him on that erroneous belief. (Scholars say it's not, activists say it is - who should one believe)?

(as a post note, yes surveys showed most NAs didn't consider it offensive (some did), but most DID find the fans offensive (the ones with head dresses and hatchets and all that)).
