I will need more to believe it. They went through all this process and all, and I never saw Commanders having any real fans support. Warriors did, that's out. Renegades does a little bit. Hogs/WarHogs has some... And obviously Redwolves/Wolves leads the pack. I know the rebranding isn't an online popularity contest, but Commanders still feels like an outsider in this race.
I agree, though Commanders has gotten a lot of non standard media play, it I almost like the Skins are trying to see the best way to frame it.

Yet Wolves gets zero media leakage. My Wolf-fandom wants to say that's because they have the truth locked up tight, but that is not the history of DS' team.

Well if you wanna go this way they have thrown a lot of wolves related hints out there too... It makes sense that they'd be trying to see some fans reactions to their options, but I don't see what makes Commanders so much likely than the other ones.

I think Commanders fits with what RR would pick, and definitely Snyder would fawn over the military connection.

I still believe it will be Wolves based on the Making the brand videos and the packaging of them.

Just want them to announce it so it is over with.

Rather have Dead Kennedy's than Commander Cody.

The wolves topic was making the rounds on Twitter last night, seems that it's off the table due to trademark hurdles.

No I think it comes down to other sports teams out there using wolves already

I always like Wolf Pack over Wolves; when using the wolf mascot.
