According to @Fanatics, since launching the Commanders name, they are the top-selling team overall across all sports on Fanatics. The Terry McLaurin and Chase Young Burgundy jersey are both in the top 5 (ahead of the Tom Brady red #Bucs jersey).[/quote]

[quote=skinsfaninok;1309802]I Can't believe fans on twitter are so mad at the name LOL, Like its so weird to me so many have a weird connection with a Wolf.. I love Wolves too but I'm not going apeshit because the team didn't choose "Redwolves"[/quote]

Twitter is mad all the time. At everything. And everyone.

Twitter isn't real life.

After taking a nice nap, and having some time to process all of it a little bit more here are my thoughts:

[LIST][*]I do not love, or at the moment, even like the name. I'll get used to it though and I think it's totally fine and might even be a cool imposing name if we actually start to win something.

[*]I'm glad Jason said something about this 'just being the launch.' As insane as it is considering they had a good chunk of time to iron out all the details, there is so much about this that feels unfinished. The logo needs to evolve rather quickly IMO, and the crest is actually pretty cool and would be a decent primary logo on its own. The potential for a mascot of sorts is also pretty cool, and the possibility that the existing fight song can probably incorporate Commanders and live on is cool.

[*]The jerseys are the biggest letdown for me. The Burgundy could have looked really, really classy but that giant 'Commanders' above the number is jarring and cheapens the whole look. Especially when you consider how nice the burgundy helmets look, it's really a damn shame. The white jerseys look like they belong to a different team. The lack of gold accents and not using the same shade of burgundy as the home jerseys is such a shame. I'm not a fan of an all-black uniform but I guess they're fine... until you look at that ridiculous W on the front of the helmet black helmet.[/LIST]

I’m sure the uniforms will evolve and tweaked

[quote=MTK;1309636]Oh thanks, yeah it's not a widely used term in the US[/quote]

It is widely used here in the US in the building codes and building design industries but not many know this (or care).

Don't care for the name but I suppose it could have been worse. I am not going to jump ship. Home Uniform looks good, all black not so much, maybe incorporate burgundy & gold into it, away uniforms make the red burgundy. I am sure they will make tweaks to it. I wanted Redwolves/Wolves. Was okay with Redhogs/Warthogs/Hogs - would have been a good tie in to the old O-Line, Sentinals or keep it Football Team

[quote=skinsfan69;1309591]This feels like being seperated for the past few years and today is where the judge makes the divorce final. I feel so numb towards this team.

Commanders is just so fucking bad.[/quote]

I thought it was OK. But the only reason it was OK, was because it was better than other options.

Now that it's the name, I fucking hate it.

It was fun waiting for anyone I know personally, to text me to make fun of the name.

I'm not hanging my hat on anything. Just ridiculing people that are making such a big deal out of this.

I hope I can love that origami font W but it’s a damn struggle right now.
The R was my life.

Camo stripe? I’d like to see more camo in the uniform, but that is a sharp touch.

Let’s get ready for football, I’m past all this dumb name shit
