Changing The Team Name, Give It A Rest!!
 

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!!

This, the name is terrible. And for the love of god get rid of Jason Wright, he’s been another pathetic embarrassment

I have zero attachment to Commanders but I also don’t want to go through another naming process and there’s no guarantee another new name would be any better.

The name and uniforms are so far down on my list of priorities to turning this organization around.

If we win games the name will gradually be approved by the fanbase. As it is right now we have a loser squad stuck in mediocrity so the name is associated with mediocrity.

I disagree Moby. It'll never be accepted by many of the older fans like myself. I will never approve it under any circumstances. Ever.

But it is what it is so no sense in bitching about it anymore. But at some point I hope the new owners change it. They have to erase everything Dan Snyder - the name, the uniforms, Ron, Wright, every single person that worked there under Dan has to go.

I'm so fucking tired of that guy. I hope they fire him first. I wish they would hire a team president that is from DC, born and raised. Someone that gets what it means to root for the team. Someone that rooted for this team for a long time. There has got to be somebody out there that fits the criteria.

Re: Changing The Team Name, Give It A Rest!!
 

No it is a stain on the franchise left by Snyder. We will never give it rest until it is gone.

Another name won't be a stain left by Snyder. The name Commanders will always be a stain, so that is why it must be replaced.

Re: Changing The Team Name, Give It A Rest!!
 

Yea I'll never adopt any new name, buy the merch or anything along those lines tbh... but again no sense in complaining about an argument that will never win nor the result change.

A whole nother name change would be annoying, would still be nice to be free of the Snyder stench.

Whatever happens happens

I could care less what they are called, I want to win a SB

Winning is the ultimate cleaner of the Snyder stain, along with being a quality organization top to bottom.

Of course you're right but if the new owners want a new name and new uniforms that would be fine with me as long as they don't want something uninspired. The silly looking pig with the horrible name must go whether or not the new owners make any other changes.

Re: Changing The Team Name, Give It A Rest!!
 

From some rumblings we've heard so far it doesn't sound like the name will be changed.

If they do decide to change it, the new name better be a home run that wins over the majority or the new ownership groups risks souring fans right off the bat. I think they'd be better off putting their time and resources elsewhere but we shall see.

Re: Changing The Team Name, Give It A Rest!!
 

I for one, would like a clean slate going forward. New owner, new stadium, new name. Wash all the Snyder leftovers down the drain, and hopefully winning as well. Like Kevin Sheehan said, call them something like the Washing Football Club and put the old logo back on on the helmets with the uniforms we used to have...best case scenario to me.
