Why would this site shut down? If it's Warriors then Warpath is still perfectly relevant. A simple update of the site banner which we do almost every year anyway is all that would be needed. Not that hard.

MTK, I wish the best for you. Rooting for the Washington Whatevers.

The other thread you started, "Skins getting heat again over name issue", you link Mike Florio saying this: washington franchise should change its name now (https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2020/06/02/washington-franchise-should-change-its-name-now/)

Here's a Mike Florio article yesterday. native american groups ask nfl to stop using all names images and logos (https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2020/07/07/native-american-groups-ask-nfl-to-stop-using-all-names-images-and-logos/)

Florio and the other woke ppl are wrong, about the name redskins, about most things. But that's the trend. There isn't any good principle behind it, but if one really thinks the team name is racist, so's this site. Hope you guys stick it out.

Huge difference between Redskins and Warriors or Warpath. This site will be fine but I appreciate the concern.

Hell yeah. I can hear the howling now.

Agreed. Also, I imagine a howling sound while it's 3rd and long while we are on defense would be so obnoxious from opposing team and fans. Every 1st down there is a snarling wolf growl.

I'm favoring redwolves or wolves now. You could trot out some bad ass game of thrones type wolves as your logo / mascot.

Fanbase can be wolfpack with both wolves and redwolves IMO.

Yeah the wolf on the picture on the sleeve is not good. Red wolves are actually a type of wolf btw so it isn’t like we are trying to hold onto the red part. Love the snarl on first down.

Right, it is driving me nuts all the comparisons between a slang term for an entire race of people and names like Warrior.

The word police can never be satisfied. They are using words to control us and promote their agenda.

Some people are taking it way too far. Warriors with the spear logo would be perfectly appropriate and not offensive. Warriors is a very generic term and spears aren't exclusive to Native Americans. Drop the feather off the spear if it helps but I don't think that's necessary.

With the "W" in Washington .. the only ones i dont hate are warriors and warthogs.

What about using the "D" in D.C.?

DC Defenders

DC Devils

DC Diplomats

DC Dogs

DC Greasy

DC Disco Dans

DC Dividers

DC Gravediggers

..........

Agree, it's really not that deep guys. If the team can't use a damn spear and feather then Florida State is screwed
