The Capitals have the perfect name for a DC team , Nationals is good .. Wizards for me is horrible.. but so was bullets, .. what sucks is a lot of the USFL , arena football and other minor league teams have had great names that nobody wants to re-use .. factor that in with the PC crowd and it’s gonna be tough to Come up with a name ..

I'm with ya. There's one other benefit to sticking with Football Team ...
I also truly enjoy, watching the jackasses in sports media constantly stumble around with our team, and inadvertently slip and say Redskins. And you know it kills them, because they want to be the most PC people in the world.
If we stick with Football Team, the slips to Redskins will continue.
If we transition to something else --- whatever that will be --- the jackassery in sports media won't slip as much, if at all.
