Agreed.

It's grown on me quite a bit the last couple of days.

And love the Seinfeld reference.

I feel like the internet suggested it as a way of mocking the Redskins for their stupidity, and then Dan was asking his advisors for help one day and someone was like "well the internet loves the name Washington Football Team, let's go with that until the new name is ready."

Re: Washington Football Team
 

I really like the name .. the look .. gonna be hard to find this offensive unless the team plays really bad !

Re: Washington Football Team
 

I was reading some posts on the subject, and it seems that there is a small collection of fans who think that while "Washington Football Team" is the best thing they can do for this season, it also raises another issue if merchandise sales, etc. resume and the new name becomes profitable for Dan. In this way, he/they doesn't have as much incentive to pick a permanent name if he is making money again, and if the team somehow is successful under Ron. Winning and making money might push some of the search for the "new" name to the back burner.

If people are going to buy Washington Football Team items, they are going to BUY(!!!) Redwolves/Warriors items. Plus if the team were to do good, ie win the division, the team would make fortunes selling the 1 year legacy uniform, along with the new (hopefully kick ass) branded items with the new logo/team name. It's a no lose situation for DS and ownership IF the team starts winning.

Re: Washington Football Team
 

We’re a classic franchise and this is a pretty classic look with the numbers on the helmets. I actually hope that part becomes permanent.

Re: Washington Football Team
 

Dan is going to make money on unis this year and then make a boat load more when he changed the name permanently next year any people buy more new stuff. Why wouldn’t he change the name again??

Could also be used as a throwback helmet and uniform if they are changed....

Didn't know you did this Summo as far as clothes and accessories!

Re: Washington Football Team
 

So here's a thought...


Ownership was forced to drop the Redskins name.

They "changed" the name of the team the Washington Football Team while retaining Redskins colors and basically the same uniforms except for the helmet logo.

What if the plan is to essentially keep the Redskins identity unofficially with the fans by NOT replacing the Redskins name with a new nickname?

At the moment, we're being like Prince when he changed his name to a logo you cannot pronounce, so everyone still called him "Prince" because you had to call him SOMETHING.


Sort of a wink and nod to fans...who will still wear Redskins gear and sing HTTR at games if we have no other name.


:httr::rofl:

Frankly, I can think of many much worse tags than WFT.

I'm going to rank them:

1.) White over burgundy (nice color balance)
2.) Burgundy over white (can't we get some gold pants?)
3.) All burgundy (I'd like to see this in real life once just to see it with the new helmet)
4.) All white (I didn't like it when we did it in 2007)

Re: Washington Football Team
 

We need a Sundberg...the longest-tenured Redskin.

Re: Washington Football Team
 

The new helmet logos are humungous. Or at least they are on my phone. Almost twice the size as the average ones.

Re: Washington Football Team
 

Honestly I hope they keep these helmets long term

Re: Washington Football Team
 

[quote=skinsfaninok;1256592]Honestly I hope they keep these helmets long term[/quote]I like them also. Colors are sweet and love the number on the side. Tight and unique.

Re: Washington Football Team
 

I'm just glad they kept the gold facemask and didn't go gray, which is trendy and horrible looking. We tried it...looked bad.

Re: Washington Football Team
 

I just wished they kept the stripes. I would have eliminated the middle one and made the two remaining yellow and it would tie in the facemask better, IMO

Re: Washington Football Team
 

Agreed on the stripes.
