Also, Martin McCaulay filed trademarks for “Washington Space Commanders” and “Washington Wolf Commanders,” at a time when he was trying to squat on the team’s potential new name.


frick this guy. edit : apparently he has said he’ll give up all rights to the team

And also, I’m sure they could work out something with the Army and Air Force to allow both the be in place.

I’ll never stop calling them the Redskins.

Just make the logo a potato and it’s instantly not offensive to anyone

They can even keep the colors and that stupid ‘Hail to the Redskins’ song, because its now about potatoes

What about The Washington Senate, or Senators?

Washington Ironsides. And put a model of the USS Constitution in the stadium Bucs style.

or go with a specific Indian name, and get permission, give them revenue share...etc. Ala, the Seminoles. so, the Washington Potomacs.

If not Redskins just go with Hogs. It’s not that complicated. Redskins preferably though.

Why is Hogs protected when you have 25 different schools with Tiger mascots?

They should have went with Washington Redtails. Has a nice ring to it and is historically significant to our nations military history. Plus, there were many concept uniforms that were pretty darn good...

This would immediately become the pregame fly over right??

maybe not in Boise, but we are talking about a DC based team, and they will take offense bc a potato logo is blatantly disrespectful and insulting to Brandon and Uncle Festerman

Going racist right after you buy a team is probably a bad move.

I'd have gone with the Washington Reserve.

They can also play off the feds with it and update the helmet logo profile to this and do new uniforms whenever there is a new chairman.
