He will spend money on FA he think will draw hype but he is pretty cheap with facilities and stuff.

Definitely. He wants to spend money to bring in money. A new practice facility (which they have needed for years to compete with amenities that other modern facilities offer) has never been considered because the ROI wouldn't be felt financially (even though it would help field a more competitive team). But he doesn't mind making small improvements here and there that don't cost as much (see the bubble dome for example).

My big takeaway from this is those of us who don't like the name WFT aren't making as much noise as those who do. Time to speak up before they bring the most unoriginal name in sports history into permanence.

Yep , I submitted my little fan thingy and said to keep the name as is. I'm actually a huge fan of it

That is exactly what it means. I can live with that.

"Some of the things that are emerging from that are the Washington Football Team has something that ties deeply to our history. It feels like that isn't jettisoning all the things we have been in the past, whereas something that's completely new might feel that way," Wright told Keim.

Yeah this is kinda like a fuck you, redskins wasn’t replaced, just removed..and ima never stop saying Redskins

Good point Guru

[skinsfaninok]

I don't think they were ever going to really change it, Wright is spot on when he says they don't wan't to erase the history with a brand new name..

Warriors , Redwolves etc would be basically a whole new franchise. Redskins will never be replaced so just keep it WFT, the folks that hate it will eventually get used to it and like it as well.

Are they keeping the band in the stadium?

They arent gonna be part of the lame ass dance team or anything?

[sdskinsfan2001]

I'd prefer to pick a team name. But I'm fine with Washington Football Team too. They can name them anything and they will still be my favorite team until the day I die.

Hitler would be better than THE DAN. Bezos would revamp crappy fan experience at FedEx and NONE of the BS on all fronts under THE DAN for 2 decades would have occurred.

Washington's quest to add more offensive talent could include New England WR N'Keal Harry. The team is monitoring his situation, according to multiple sources. The 6-foot-4 Harry, a first-round pick in 2019, hasn't produced and could be traded

I wouldn't oppose to this move if we give up something like 5th round pick or later.. And this could mean that the coaches don't have a lot of faith in AGG and/or Harmon.
