Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

I stand corrected.
The new name is the Washington Mooby's

So instead of 'Skins for Redskins, we'd be called the Moobs for short now?

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

What about Washington Redzone

This would work for a year, just slap an R or W on the helmet and go.

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

One I wouldn't mind seeing and I am biased to my born on Beaufort MCAS is the Commandants. The Commandant is a uniquely DC institution and a nod to the military

The offended crowd will say it's a violation of their mythical Seperation of Church and State.

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

A name I really like is the Raptors (the jet).

Washington Raptors

I know another pro team has the name but it's a completely different thing/reference.



Wouldn't even necessarily need a logo on the helmet, the helmet could be fashioned to look like a fighter pilot helmet.

Pretty cool name, wouldnt mind the dinosaur either, but I understand the jet/military thing.

The only way I can support Warriors is if they completely dump any reference to native americans and go full military, change colors to cammo or red and white (DC) and have a military honor section in the stadium and honor a vet every halftime. Have flyovers, bring in the marines marching band and go full on military. Discount tickets, the works. even host Army/navy game.

I definately dont want Redtails, we are just swinging from one ethnic group to another, eventually someone will find out the guy who named them was a pedifile or something.

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

I can't get excited about anything hog or pig related. Makes me want to eat bbq not watch football. And the pig jokes would be annoying as all hell.

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

It's hard not to admire the Tuskegee Airmen and I like the notion of the name being a nod to them. A few years ago, I brought my son to a book fair where one of them was doing a signing. Meeting him was a great experience and I am glad my son was able to shake hands with a true hero.

But ... Red Tails just does not do it for me.
