Great time to snap up Murder Hornets.

How about the Washington Revolutionaries.
There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don't.
I liked the suggestion of Washington Pigskins. I can't remember who said it, but I thought it was a great thought.
They can keep the "skins" shorthand. Wild boar mascot could be cool. Red definitely fits as a color. Sounds old school, which would fit the age of the franchise. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

When you get into the endzone, act like you've been there before.

I can't believe it hasn't even gotten mentioned in all the speculation articles out there. To me it's an obvious choice, but Warriors is nice too.
My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.

I realized that I'm in the minority but I just feel the sports teams named after animals are so played out. Would just prefer something a bit different -- and not currently used by another major sports franchise. I'm not saying to rename a bunch of teams for absolutely no reasons. But the Redskins had to be change anyways given economic/political pressure. I mean they could do something really stupid like Houston and make the full name an address, so I can just make fun of them.

But I didnt anticipate the white savior complex to grow as large as it has. It was also stated that Snyder wants an new stadium and the local officials that controls the votes to give him an new facility said that it wouldn't happen until he agrees to change the name. I heard this on 1010XL to which is highly probable. Time Will Tell. NH3...

But I didnt anticipate the white savior complex to grow as large as it has. It's true. It was reported 2 weeks back: Unless Daniel Snyder changes Redskins’ name, RFK site is off the table, officials say Synder will never win points with white savior crowd. He did this at least a decade late, and only amidst significant pressure politically and economically that made keeping the name untenable. Lots of Redskins fans despise having to go out of the city to the current FedexField. They felt it killed the experience. He will probably win back way more fans just by getting a new stadium in the city than he would lose by "giving in on the name". We show less advertisements to registered users.

Pig Skins would make too much sense. It sucks the name is getting changed bc of all the history but I understand life so..
Maybe it will drop the name and just be Washington. Interesting to see what they come up with. (07-14-2020, 06:14 PM)JagFanatic24 Wrote: Pig Skins would make too much sense. It sucks the name is getting changed bc of all the history but I understand life so.. I was thinking earlier today about if they just went by "Washington." Maybe they will do that for the time while they think about coming up with a name. Truth be told I don't really care for hardly any of the suggestions I've seen floating around various places. Though, IMO Pigskins does sound better than a lot of them. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!
Maybe thin skin would be better.
