You can’t find Washington on Nike’s website in team apparel. There are only 31 teams available. The Washington Racists are the only team left out.

Good job Nike.

That's an old joke! Going back to when the NBA's Washington Bullets wanted to have a less violent name, so they changed the team name to the DC Bullets.

New name should be the Blue Crabs.

Dan Snyder is way too much of a total shitstain to actually do something good for the fans, the NFL, and the country.

I bet he doubles down by adding “Drunken” before “Redskins”.

Redtails would be awesome

I think the Generals would be hilarious given their record against the Globetrotters.

From that list, I like Renegades.

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Sat Jul 04, 2020 9:46 am

Why would they have Capitals (hockey) and Capitols (football)?

Merkin · Post by **Merkin** » Sat Jul 04, 2020 10:04 am

Someone suggested Pigskins, keeping all politics out of it, and that way they can keep the 'Skins nickname.

Not sure how I feel about the Redtails. I truly think it's fantastic that they want to honor the Tuskogee Airmen, but eventually people may tire of images of war, and not sure what the relationship is of DC is to them. Used to be that team names had relationships to the city where they were based. Minnesota (land of 1000) Lakers, New Orleans Jazz, San Francisco 49ers, Brooklyn (streetcar) Dodgers, Houston Astros, Milwaukee Brewers, Green Bay (meat) Packers and so on.

Reading Red Wolves could be the new name.

Red Tails is better

They want it to have a 'military theme'?

Maybe they'll go for 'Buffalo Soldiers'.

That would confuse everybody on every level.

Washington Football Team has a nice ring to it.

They might consider keeping it permanently.

I know its just a placeholder.. but I kinda like it. It might inspire them to actually be a functioning football team

Meh, I don't care for it. Might as well be The Washington Wonder Bread.

Redwolves would be cool.

Karens might be more apropos.

The Washington Football Team is the greatest name in the history of sports. What a missed opportunity if they change it to anything other.

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Tue Jan 04, 2022 1:19 pm

I want them to change their name to the Washington Pigskins.

1. Their owner is a pig
2. Still retain part of the old name without offending anyone (unless PETA members I suppose)

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Tue Jan 04, 2022 1:36 pm

They’ll always be the Whities to me.

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Tue Jan 04, 2022 1:51 pm

I always misread the thread title as "Tighty Whities".

There are almost 2 billion people in the world who think pigs are unclean, although fitting for Washington.

Someone pointed out to me that European soccer largely doesn’t have mascots and team names. It’s not the Manchester United Wildcats.

It blew my mind that that’s an American thing.
