Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins
Gotcha ! Thanks for the explanation! I did some research on the red wolf .. apparently they only live in eastern North Carolina .. not sure how that ties in with this team … wolves without the Red in the name makes more sense to me … Washington Wolves … we maybe totally surprised at what it actually ends up … I still think it could be a nod to the military or a patriotic theme…

Anyway, beside Monument (which is boring AF if you ask me), what name has a specific connection to DC and DC only ? And yes, that's including Redskins, it's not like NA where only from DC in the first place... So this "no link to the town" argument is weak IMO.

Note - I was originally a Supersonics fan, which is the best name in sports history. But I am not from Seattle, so I didn't care when they moved. So I've been a Thunder fan since the move. I actually like that name OK(C), but still don't want 2 favorite teams with weird names.

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins
It hasnt been shown in any video, but they had Commanders in this one (dumb) but what about Washington Commandos. Riggins in fatigues comes to mind.
Personally I doubt it is that militaristic but I think it would be a Snyder favorite. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk |

Every name, besides the Wolves (because that's my favorite), will initially be disappointing. Some names will take a lot longer to get over than others. I'm personally glad Warriors is gone. I hate the Warriors basketball team and don't want a common name altogether. But any name that isn't the Wolves (I like Redwolves too, but keeping "red" in the name will come off as a fake change), will be on a sliding scale of disappointment for me.

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins
Word is they have narrowed it to 3 names

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins
Based on the latest social network video that's not crazy to think, but the short list could be wider than that, no official word on this matter yet.
