One I wouldn't mind seeing and I am biased to my born on Beaufort MCAS is the Commandants. The Commandant is a uniquely DC institution and a nod to the military
The offended crowd will say it's a violation of their mythical Seperation of Church and State. :D
Seems "Revolution" is a soccer team owned by NE owner Robert Kraft. Its out.
There are plenty of examples of shared names in sports
Giants
Panthers
Cardinals
Jets
Kings
Lions
Rangers

Redhogs
Pigskins
Warriors is the only one that doesnt make me cringe but im not 100% feeling it either
I can't get excited about anything hog or pig related. Makes me want to eat bbq not watch football. And the pig jokes would be annoying as all hell.

A name I really like is the Raptors (the jet).
Washington Raptors
I know another pro team has the name but it's a completely different thing/reference.

Wouldn't even necessarily need a logo on the helmet, the helmet could be fashioned to look like a fighter pilot helmet.

Pretty cool name, wouldnt mind the dinosaur either, but I understand the jet/military thing.
The only way I can support Warriors is if they completely dump any reference to native americans and go full military, change colors to cammo or red and white (DC) and have a military honor section in the stadium and honor a vet every halftime. Have flyovers, bring in the marines marching band and go full on military. Discount tickets, the works. even host Army/navy game.
I definately dont want Redtails, we are just swinging from one ethnic group to another, eventually someone will find out the guy who named them was a pedifile or something.
