All the toxic work place stuff is over with and Dan will soon be gone, so to me that is in the past. The present is what matters, not what happened in the past.

I think the new group needs to get in here and roll their sleeves up. I think the right time for a name change would be when they go into the new stadium or a year before. You can't change the name after just changing it. No way that happens.

The smart thing to do would not go w/ Redwolves or anything w/ RED. But go to something that was in the fight song. The Washington Warpaths sounds fucking fantastic and that would resonate w/ our fanbase. You go w/ that and put an arrow on the helmets, that is us. You mean to tell me people wouldn't like that? But Commanders one day has to go and never be heard from again. Ever. That name has to be bad for business.

Warpaths will never happen. Native American's must be erased from history. Any reference to them is offensive. Somehow just never discussing them or referencing them is better.

Pick something related to the D.C. area.

Washington Chimney Swifts is my new personal favorite.

It's a little bit ironic that we started a thread about putting to rest the idea of changing the name...

Yeah you'd think that crowd would know by now that no we're not going to give that subject a rest - until it happens.

If your sick of the talk you better hope they change it otherwise that talk is going to stay permanently.

If the team starts winning, no one is going to give a flying f*ck about the team name.

Look, I'm not crazy about the name[Commanders] either but if we start to win how many will even pay it any mind? Look, any name has to have a connection to the[DMV] right? like it or not this name is connected to our military and where does command come from? well we ain't calling them[The Presidents- Admirals-Generals] now the only two choices should be...[Archives- Potomacs- which is French]the last thing Mr. Harris should be worried about is the name, so for now...GO COMMANDERS!!

Financially, a quick way to cash in on the surge of excitement around a new owner/end of Dan Snyder era is to rebrand, and if it is a popular name even better.

This song takes me back. Oh, 1996, I miss you.

The new ownership is going to cash in right away by having an owner not named Snyder. They're going to have to spend money on stadium and facilities upgrades.

Keim said it best, one of the biggest red flags when Snyder took over the team is that he approached it as a fan. We definitely don't want that in this new ownership.

Agreed. Plus the new owners aren't going to have time to rebrand this thing before the season starts. It's just not realistic.

Well maybe some people may get their wish:

Although I see this reverting back to the Washington Football Team I guess.

Also, this is the type of shit the new ownership probably doesn't want to go through in rebranding.
