That’s the problem with today’s “media”. Everyone wants to be first with the “scoop”, so they throw away any real reporting just to try to one up on their competition.
With computers, if you wait for anything to be verified, you will be the 1000th person to report anything.
And with the attention span (short) of people today, if the media screws it up, the people will forget about it and move onto the next big story by the next day.
So there is very little accountability for the reporter.
At least that’s how I see it.

They also want to keep the fight song, but as a number of people have pointed out, the fight song was written by the wife of the possibility racist owner they're trying trying to semi-delete from their history, so that probably gone.

Update: I'm not condemning you for this, just a general WTF when does it end. 🙂

Zero said :”I’d rather be correct then first”......I agree 100%! I’m the same way. So you and I wouldn’t last a day in today’s media. No one would wait to find out the truth.
The media is so much “fake news” today. The computer is partly responsible. You can’t fart without someone posting about it.

Anyway.....how about for the name,
“The Washington Politicians”?
They also haven’t accomplished anything in decades, so the name would fit!😁

Effective immediately, Washington will call itself the "Washington Football Team" pending the adoption of a new name, the franchise announced.

This is not a final renaming and rebranding for the team; this is the name it wants to use until pending adoption of a new name at some point.



ESPN 

They should keep it. That's one exciting and sexy name.

So the football world agrees, they should have simply went by "Washington" until they got their new nickname officially trademarked.

Or Washington Snyder's, until the new nickname was approved.


This is why I've thought it's going to be Washington Warriors, as Synder is so lacking in original thoughts.

This is now going to be a killer if the new nickname isn't cool and they struggle. Now I'm hoping for Washington Redwolves.

dfosterf (2h) : *Friday*
dfosterf (2h) : 100 million would be 539 million as of Fridsy

dfosterf (2h) : Beer brat and ticket is where the money comes from
dfosterf (2h) : The 40th is Titletown Tech itself. This is a pet project of both Ed Policy and Mark Murphy
Zero2Cool (2h) : New site coming along nicely. The editor is better than what we have here. Oh yeah!
dfosterf (2h) : No profit that I know of. 0 for 40
dfosterf (2h) : The woke reference has to do with the makeup and oftentimes objectives of the companies they invested in
packerfanoutwest (2h) : beer and brats woke? say whom?
beast (2h) : I don't want to get into politics, but how is, beers and brats considered to be "woke"? Food is food...
beast (2h) : That being said, I'm not saying all 100% should be that way, but not surprised if majority are Wisconsin based

dfosterf (25-Jul) : It's my one day deal complaint dept. on shareholder meeting day
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.
