This reeks of Snyder being petty that his 2 biggest rivals being in the PO and not his team, doesn't it ?
Curious that they are emphasizing on the "Hail to"... are they going to find a way to keep that ?[/quote]

Yep I saw the commercial. Danny's intoxication with hype continues unabated.

I am wondering, was the commercial broadcast nationwide or just in the DMV market?

Re: Name Reveal 2.2.22
 

It was a national commercial. Guess I don't see the big deal. I thought it was pretty well done. Why are fans so fucking salty all the time about everything? Jeez lol

Being "salty" aka honest towards the Danny is more realistic than shrugged shoulders and vapid dismissiveness. You asked lol

Re: Name Reveal 2.2.22
 

" Hail to the fans we consider family" Is that some kind of joke? Like who approved that w/ out smirking?

Re: Name Reveal 2.2.22
 

The commercial said fans are like family. With the charges for parking at practice, making public transportation to FedEx very difficult, a leaky stadium, suing octogenarian ticket holders, and putting a crappy product on the field for decades, that’s a bit of a stretch. I just hope with a reset that the overall experience will improve. It’d be nice to have more to cheer about.

I do think we have potential. RR is easy to root for, and we have some great (young) core players who are playing well or who have bright looking futures - McLaurin, Allen, Cosmi, Way, Gibson, Sweat, Young, Fuller, Kurl. Just keep building. Less hype, more substance. Kind of the opposite of the Cowboys.

I'm sure it's not Dan that made the commercial or decided when to air it. I get being salty with Dan when it makes sense, but being upset over this commercial seems silly.

Re: Name Reveal 2.2.22
 

Is it possible that we could just enjoy a decent commercial acknowledging the history of this team and the city and mayyyyybe possibly like the new name while simultaneously still hating Dan?

I ask because I'm in that category.

Exactly.

I didn't see it here in NY so it was probably just locally.

With Snyders reputation, I'm not sure I'm comfortable with him thinking of me as anything close to family...

Not upset, just critical. And I already explained why. In sum, a franchise as tattered as ours might want to consider a more subtle debut of the new name. I would counsel a dignified press conference at CommandersWhateverPark rather than yet another round of Danny's Hype in commercials and on the Today Show.

We are both fans and I welcome a different opinion. Yours just seem to lack any substance.

[QUOTE=BaltimoreSkins;1308271]I hope not if the name is commanders. That has some serious bad connotation[/QUOTE]I am pretty sure the powers that be see nothing wrong with Hail to the Commanders.

yeah, I don't get the outrage over the commercial. I think it's pretty well done actually

With that said, with the "fans have always been family" line it's pretty obvious the new name will be the Washington Olive Gardens

Thanks. For the record, the quality of the commercial is damn good. Excellent production.
