Changing The Team Name, Give It A Rest!!
Look, I'm not crazy about the name[Commanders] either but if we start to win how many will even pay it any mind? Look, any name has to have a connection to the[DMV] right? like it or not this name is connected to our military and where does command come from? well we ain't calling them[The Presidents- Admirals-Generals] now the only two choices should be...[Archives- Potomacs- which is French]the last thing Mr. Harris should be worried about is the name, so for now...GO COMMANDERS!!

Re: Changing The Team Name, Give It A Rest!!
This, the name is terrible. And for the love of god get rid of Jason Wright, he’s been another pathetic embarrassment

Re: Changing The Team Name, Give It A Rest!!
I'm so fucking tired of that guy. I hope they fire him first. I wish they would hire a team president that is from DC, born and raised. Someone that gets what it means to root for the team. Someone that rooted for this team for a long time. There has got to be somebody out there that fits the criteria.

Re: Changing The Team Name, Give It A Rest!!
I have zero attachment to Commanders but I also don’t want to go through another naming process and there’s no guarantee another new name would be any better.
The name and uniforms are so far down on my list of priorities to turning this organization around. |

Another name won't be a stain left by Snyder. The name Commanders will always be a stain, so that is why it must be replaced.

Winning is the ultimate cleaner of the Snyder stain, along with being a quality organization top to bottom.

Re: Changing The Team Name, Give It A Rest!!
Of course you're right but if the new owners want a new name and new uniforms that would be fine with me as long as they don't want something uninspired. The silly looking pig with the horrible name must go whether or not the new owners make any other changes.

I'm honestly sick of the name talk, it is only being brought up by delusional fans who think somehow they are going to bring the old name back, sulky fans that didn't get their choice, and media folks who just want to stir the pot for clicks. Also, Snyder put on a bigger stain on this team by his toxic/abusive work culture/environment, the YEARS of losing on and off the field, and him gutting this team financially to support his lifestyle. So people need to GTFOH with the whole "the name is a Snyder stain" BS.

I thought it was bad as well but have you ever googled NFL mascots, try it. there are so really bad ones out there. Example: https://www.tennesseetitans.com/t-rac/ I never realized the number of teams with stupid mascots.

Re: Changing The Team Name, Give It A Rest!!
If we win games the name will gradually be approved by the fanbase. As it is right now we have a loser squad stuck in mediocrity so the name is associated with mediocrity.

But it is what it is so no sense in bitching about it anymore. But at some point I hope the new owners change it. They have to erase everything Dan Snyder - the name, the uniforms, Ron, Wright, every single person that worked there under Dan has to go. |

Re: Changing The Team Name, Give It A Rest!!
No it is a stain on the franchise left by Snyder. We will never give it rest until it is gone.

Re: Changing The Team Name, Give It A Rest!!
Yea I'll never adopt any new name, buy the merch or anything along those lines tbh... but again no sense in complaining about an argument that will never win nor the result change.
A whole nother name change would be annoying, would still be nice to be free of the Snyder stench. Whatever happens happens
