Just seems natural and easy to me. I hope that’s how they go.
No matter what name is selected there will be a large faction that will tash it and 5 years from now no one will give it a second thought

Wasn't "Redwings" the name of the bicycle club that the founder belonged to? If I remember it correctly.

Guardians brings up Guardians of the galaxy, Sentinels has some merit, but wolves hit every key concept of a football team on the field.
I agree with almost all of this. A pack of wolves descending on prey is a great image and goes so well with football. I'm not sure that wolves are natural enemies to giants though. The Washington Bean Growers, now that would amplify the hostility between New York and Washington.

I think images of a pack of wolves taking down giants is tremendous imagery.

For anyone that is hoping they pull a name out of thin air, that would be a huge disrespect to the fan input that they supposedly wanted.

Probably because it is a stupid name.

The Baltimore/Washington Bullets were originally the Chicago Zephyrs. Washington Zephyrs sounds a helluva lot better than Wizards.

That's true that name does suck! I'm in NY we have the Knickerbockers, which is stupid considering they are named after a style of shorts but it sound cooler as the Knicks.

I think Knickerbocker came to mean a an old time New Yorker who could trace his roots to the original Dutch.

It also inspired a beer that my uncle used to drink back in the day.
