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.

Most of the same group that bitched that Redskins was offensive and shouldn't be a football team are now the same ones lining up to crack jokes that the organization didn't rush into a new name 90 some days before the season started. They seem to think that is some easy task or can be done over night.

We really have a bunch of whiny bitches in this world.

And for whomever is coming up with a new nickname AND color scheme AND uniforms AND logo ... I feel for ya because NOTHING you do is gonna be accepted.

Personally, I'd leave it the Washington Football Team. It wouldn't be the worst thing, I mean, there is a team named after a freaking color.

LET'S GO BUCKS!!!

Only way Washington can come out on top of this is if they let a cancer kid come up with the nickname and colors. Even then people are gonna still cry, whine and bemoan "should have been done decades ago" rather than just appreciate and understand ... it has changed.

I can fully understand why Washington delayed for decades changing their Name/Logo. Even with some minimal protesters, sports teams( especially NFL teams), have too much at stake to change unless retaining the Name/Logo becomes a business liability. Now the future team sales are at stake and Trademark/Copyright concerns are preventing Washington from announcing a new Name/Logo.
Some speculator copyrighted the best names that Washington must deal with before they can proceed. What they have done is to buy time to secure full rights before announcing a change. Were i the person holding on to those copyright claims, i'd be afraid for my life. He is messing with very powerful people.

But yeah, they could potentially do something extreme creative and cool, but considering we're talking about Snyder, I wouldn't hold my breath, as he doesn't seem to have a creative bone.

Also are you talking about the Browns, named after Paul Brown the original owner, and person whom Bill Belichick calls the greatest coach ever.

First, yeah that's a bad name and I think should be changed because it's lame and to hopefully get rid of their recent suckage (not that a name change would help). Cleveland Dogs (welcome to the dog pound).

But it depends on how creative with the name. I could be wrong, but I think mainly just the name and logo are changing. Which I think Synder will go with Warriors. But the colors and uniforms might stay. Maybe.

Washington will keep the colors, but get a new Name/Logo.

Almost all of the people purposely got in the way of the Redskins, you're the only person that I know that might be getting out of the way of a big pay day.

And should they suffer a fatal accident, they will still have to pay his family survivors as rights to the trademark will go to their family, which their family might then have lawsuits over a will or lack there of and making it more complex, than simply buying it outright.

Wow ......we’ve gone from the Redskins changing their name, to trying to find Jimmy Hoffa!😂
........I know where Hoffa’s body is.......it’s in the Minnesota Vikings Super Bowl trophy case!!!!
The guys that killed him knew they would never find the body, as there is no reason for anyone to ever look in there!!!😁

Separately stated from the quoted message and said in general ...

I suppose not being involved in all name changing discussions means we should just assume and spread vile disparaging comments. That's how one shows they be cool!

Why is it culture to dias Dan Snyder? People always so quick to slander someone.

As they should have went from "Washington Redskins" to "Washington Football Team" in one solid move.

Instead of simply getting rid of the name, which built very good intrigued, only to have the good intrigue burst with a complete lame disappoint.

Also, you could be lumping more than one group together, as one, as I haven't heard the Indians groups make fun of it, or the main people that said the name was racist make fun of it. It's mainly the popular kids that made fun of it, which while they said Redskins was racist, I'm not sure they lifted a hand to help.
