[quote=nonniey;1309730]No it doesn't, not for this team. What legacy are they trying to uphold with that uniform?[/quote]

I don't understand how anyone can get behind the black uniforms. Looks like some phony color rush crap. When have we ever had those? Where are the mustard pants? They had all this time and this is what they came up with? I just don't get it.

Fighting it wont help lol It's like an ex GF, you just gotta move on eventually. Cherish the good times but in all honesty, the Redskins sucked balls for 30 years. Maybe this will change our fortune..

Pretty sure you're in a minority. For quite few years if you attend a game in your nice black merchandise you'll be surrounded by the "bitter fans" in their Burgandy and Gold with the Redskins name. You'll just have to wait until they die out and are replaced by fans who aren't even fans of the team at this point.

Love the Skins man, Nothing will ever replace that name and logo but I'm also open to new things. Commanders is solid, lets be honest its better than Defenders , Admirals , Redwolves , Redhogs, Football Team etc.

Re: Welcome your Washington Commanders
 

I've never been a big fan of black alternate uniforms, but they are popular with a lot of people. I bet you'll see plenty of black gear in the stands next year.

Re: Welcome your Washington Commanders
 

Well, that does it for me. I was never a fan of the Commanders name.

A lot has transpired in the last 24 hours. Now we know that the Commanders were never a "finalist" in the names, it was chosen from almost day 1 of the new "search".

Jason Wright, who says that we couldn't use the name Red Wolves because of trademark issues, had no problem with taking the same name AND hash tag from the San Antonio Commanders, Semi-pro team. #takecommand

Dan still remains the owner no matter what, he is most likely a sex crimes king pin that will never see justice, couple all of that with the fact that we are putting lipstick on a pig. New uniforms, new logo / seal (with incorrect championship dates on it no less), and it is still going to be the same miserable fan experience - crumbling junky FedEx field that is only 25 - 50% full at any given time.

This is the farthest thing from the team I grew up with liking, for an organization that swore this rebranding would keep ties to the past and our heritage, of which this new name and scheme does nothing.

Twitter seems to be blowing up full of negatives and the horrible botch / hack job that this was. I honestly think this is the biggest F up in Sports History that I have ever saw, from the whole concept to the leaked unveiling at the very end.

I hope the mods let me stick around on some of the other threads / boards, I really have enjoyed talking to everyone over the years and I felt like I got along with mostly everyone.

But my Washington fandom is checking out after all of this. I've had a lot of ups and downs with this team, mostly downs, but still lots of good times! Thank you all from the bottom of my heart!

I wear Skins hats all the time, mostly just hear an occasional nice hat from someone, that's about it. No fashion police knocking down my door. And I'll probably get a new Commanders hat if I see something I like.

Cheers man.

I dont blame anyone for jumping ship. This ship sucks donkey ball sacks. Like a procession line of donkey after donkey presenting their balls for us to suck.

The 4 game win streak was fun and allowed us to flirt with the idea of the playoffs for a few weeks. Maybe next year we start out 3-1 before ending up sub .500. Hmmm sign me up for that 3-1 false hope donkey ball sack. Cleveland fans say its delicious, a little dusty though.

Being a fan of this team is a net negative. We have more unfun Sundays then fun Sundays.

Being a Caps fan rocks. They arent a top 5 team anymore but the win more than they lose, fun team to watch.

Sports are supposed to = fun. My 9 year old isnt watching bc its not fun. Its just her dad sitting on the couch yelling then walking around depressed for the rest of Sunday.

Winning = gameday get togethers and food, and fun. I have videos of the girls dressed up in skins gear singing Hail, huge food spreads, decorations ... that was ages ago.

Now its depressing. No one hosts Skins gameday parties anymore.

These are Oregon Ducks uniforms in Burgundy and Gold.

I dont think you are in the minority. You are right, the Redskins name is done and as part of this rebrand they couldn't just reconfigure the old uniforms, they had to look different and they do. Like I said in a previous post, the uniforms will develop over the next couple of years and get better. The Wizards and Nationals did it, WC can too.

Commanders is like iceberg lettuce. Its not great and doesn't suck. Its a decent name that everyone will get used to in a couple years.

I like them.

I am telling the only thing bad today was the presentation of the new uniforms/names.

Just announce it on social media or whatever. Dan up there shuffling through index cards was awful, that guy is the worst public speaker.

Re: Welcome your Washington Commanders
 

I was really hoping the tweets I were reading last night saying the commanders was a misdirection and we would be surprised today Would be true, but sadly they were not and all the leaks were true,what a letdown.
I will never ever refer to this team as the commanders, the only thing they are commandeering is a pile of shit. They will forever be known as the Redskins to me and that’s what I will be calling them til the day I die.

Re: Welcome your Washington Commanders
 

They had all this time to get this right, did all these stupid ass focus groups ( they're a total waste of time) and talked to marketing geeks. And for what? To steal a name from some minor league team that is now gone? Now this #takecommand bullshit which they also stole. It is just soooo fucking cheesy. Anything this organization tries to do they just continue to fail at it.

Also they didn't listen to the fans at all. They just tried to trick them into thinking they were involved, but they weren't. That was just a complete lie.

And what about the colors? They said this was important but we get these all blacks? We get something that looks like a Cards or Gamecock uniform? This doesn't look like Washington football at all. Nothing represents anything from any past.

This was just piss poor. No way around it. Maybe I warm up to it later, maybe not. But this to me feels like the end.
