Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

A quick Google search brought up several high schools that were Redskins (or warriors) switched to Red Wolves

Yep! .. I do not understand at all why a team would change the name warriors.. do any of you find the names Chiefs,Indians,Braves,warriors, Blackhawks offensive?
It’s like any reference to native Americans is now off limits ..

Agreed.
That's why for me it's not an argument. You either like a name or you don't. But most "arguments" used to debate this subjective issue were bad faith IMO.

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

Weird thing about the Arkansas State v Chattanooga red wolves case, the articles all said a trial would occur this past October but I can not find any articles at all about the results.

Just saying a hypothetical here but suppose Washington stepped in and asked Arkansas to postpone or settle but to do so with a privacy clause until Washington announces the deal after the season.

If you are looking for a stealth bomber you look for the absence of reflections where some should be. There should be a public resolution to the Ark. v Chattanooga case especially since Chattanooga continues to use and market the Red Wolves name and logo

So New Years eve and I am on the couch googling this stuff. Turns out that Chattanooga and Arkansas agreed to a temporary suspension of the proceedings to allow time for them to reach a settlement. The clock for their filing started again in late November with a lot of time to resolve it.

Speculation but decent reasoning IMO.
I was wondering the exact same thing and didn't think any further than "Well Arkansas and Chattanooga must have made a deal before the trial"... Didn't think of why it hadn't been made public.
Maybe we're overthinking, but you might be on something there.

EDIT: Saw your second post. Still could be related though.

Re: Come up with a new name for the Redskins

Commanders is long that’s my only Issue but it fits the DC theme and it’s also unique. I can’t think of another team with the name. Other than that AAF team

I think it's just deduction from Jason Wright saying the name would be announced early 2022 and Ron saying "very shortly"

Saw that but it's reading more into JP's tweet than there actually is IMO.
He's just agreeing with somebody saying it would be nice timing. Nothing implying he knows anything about the date except what we all do.
