autoreplace for washington r******s

please leave dc out of this, the hatcats are a maryland team

they're already gearing up for (another) new stadium by 2027 but in this political and economic climate i don't see any municipalities ponying up the kind of money they'll want. at least i hope not

Redskins

Does it still work?

:(

suggest Swamp Things

Should definitely be wetland-themed

Red Rockets

one of the proposed names from when they stupidly renamed the bullets was the washington seadogs. so, seadogs.

can we get clinton portis to rename the team

'Senators' wd denote the deserved level of respect

Man there's something weird going on about that Red Wolves stuff.

And uh, why are THE HOGS in the running too?

thought that said HOGFEFE for a moment

pplains, I wasn't sure if you were asking "why" because you didn't know about the Hogs, or because you thought it was a terrible name.

pigskins makes sense to me, they still get to be the 'skins' and it fits with the hogs thing.

red wolves sounds like the name of a lacrosse team, very bad.

Oh right. Those hogs.

Lots of chatter about names that I associate with the hometown teams, that's all. Maybe they can be the Washington Travelers? (HTTT?)

Also keep in mind that

When Arkansas State was changing its name from the Indians, there was a lobby for the "Engines", because, you know, Jonesboro is such a train town and has the locomotive engines and whatnot.

And everyone else went Riiiight, that's very clever of you.

Feinstein: “The team’s new name should be ‘Justice.’ “ https://t.co/RU5SHj2th6

as in No Justice, No Peace

or as in the current 2020 Department of Justice

Washington Cronies

the rest of that column is actually fine, but the kicker . . . i guess if you write about sports long enough, everyone turns into rick reilly

Redclots

If they want to be "The Washington Justice", they will need to appear on the Federalist Society list of candidates and get 51 votes in the Senate.

i think the Washington Justice should have a practice scrimmage against the GOP softball team

lol wut

Effective immediately, Washington will call itself the “Washington Football Team”, pending adoption of a new name, sources tell ESPN.

This is not a final renaming and rebranding for team; this is the name it wants to use until pending adoption of a new name in the future. pic.twitter.com/sBs0Uo0ICm

actually i support them keeping this forever

I have been advocating for "Washington Team (of) Football," because it can be abbreviated WTF.

thats a really strong logo/brand honestly

this is the best possible outcome I love it

I need them to adopt the rap from Wildcats as their theme song immediately

https://youtu.be/1CfnKEYAbyo

The popular song from the movie

how about Washington rename themselves to being relegated to the arena league

Kind of thinking has worked out ok for the Oakland Athletics!

Just waking back up from my pregame nap to see about The Washington Football team??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Is that real?? No way! Oh man they had a thorough intense long board meeting about that one huh. 🥴🤦🏾‍♂️

was looking at old washington football team content and this happened TEN years ago

clearly not knicks fans

Knicks fans are in a special wing of the Smithsonian until the end of 2021

and on showtime on Tuesdays and Sundays

this is tremendous.

is this some kind of hamfisted attempt to troll people by Snyder? not really working.

now i want the seahawks to complain about infringement

hopefully this means the fight song lyrics will be changed to “hail to the football”

Were they forced to rename the bullets or did it just happen? I remember it happened seemingly over night.

it was a response to the assassination of yitzchak rabin, of all things

no one remembers because on the night the bullets changed their name, the entire world ended, just as so many people had warned

"My friend was shot in the back by bullets,” Pollin said. “The name ‘Bullets’ is no longer appropriate for a sports team.”
