Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

Hands down the funniest name I’ve seen someone post on Twitter is the Washington Redtape

or

Washington Federals

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

Warriors makes the most sense, keep the same colors and use one of the alternate logos like the spear

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

Someone back on page 1 suggested the "D.C. Defenders". That sounds cool but isn't that name owned by the XFL? I know the XFL is bankrupt now but would we have to purchase the rights to that name from Vince McMahon?

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

I like Warriors if it has to change as it appears it will. How about Washington Soldiers? A few good things about Soldiers- sounds similar to Redskins in terms of number of letters, syllables. Also, no one else has it any sport as I know. Sounds distinct, professional, and demands respect.

Thoughts on Washington Soldiers?

I don’t like team names that are the same in other sports. There’s a Jets in football and hockey. There is already a Warriors in the NBA. If we are going to do it, make it original.

Washington Renegades

The real question is MTK, if the name changes are you gonna update this whole site? Been here so long, gonna be weird if this page changes too. I know absolutely zero about website design or maintainence. I'd imagine the site would function the same, but have no idea how difficult changing all the visuals are.

New banner is really all it would take, simple fix

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

While I don't think Redtails is horrible, I don't like the name either. The more I think about it, the more I hate it, actually. I think either Warriors or Renegades will do. Keep the burgundy and gold, with an actual "gold" color with the burgundy if colors must be tweaked. Use the spear or the R if Renegades, W if it's the Warriors - Heck or just spell the name out on the helmet. Keep the burgundy helmets. I never liked the Lombardi uniforms because the team looked too much like the Packers.

Not a huge fan but Warriors makes the most sense.

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

Dan should approach the Native American Tribal counsels and ask them which tribe wants to be represented as being inclusive in the Redskins naming. Like Powhatan which is the tribe that geographically represents the area. Ex Washington Powhatan Redskins.
That was the tribe will adopt the franchise officially and get royalties to help the tribe. THEN the name will be "accepted" by the Native American entities as not being racist. Take the fight to the enemy. Get a Tribe to sponsor.
