Yahoo News Fan Poll

Have any of you been reading any the information coming out about the possible name change? The organization has clearly said they want the name to have a nod to the military. I really think the name is going to be the Washington RedTails. Hell, the players on the current team are saying they want it to be the RedTails. It checks all the PC boxes too.

I do believe I’m going to become a Panthers fan today after the name change. There is now 0 reason to continue rooting for that inept franchise under Dan Snyder. It’s basically my get out of jail free card. Moving to SC from DC later this year. I should get a group of different hats like the Bengals, Cowboys, Panthers,etc. and sit at a table with them all lined up like a recruit and make my decision via Instagram live.

Nope, Red Tails is referring to the Tuskegee Airmen and there can be no references to race in this day and age. Sorry, those are the rules.

Congrats having an extremely poor understanding of my views. But I guess I should expect that from someone who spouts asinine bullshite like "the country is over" all because an NFL team changed it's name.

Redtails is a dookie arse name.

Change it to the Warriors and keep the logo. Fans are still going to call them the Redskins anyways.

Doesn't look like they're announcing the name change today

quote:

Statement From The Washington Redskins Football Team

On July 3rd, we announced the commencement of a thorough review of the team's name. That review has begun in earnest. As part of this process, we want to keep our sponsors, fans and community apprised of our thinking as we go forward.

Today, we are announcing we will be retiring the Redskins name and logo upon completion of this review.

Dan Snyder and Coach Rivera are working closely to develop a new name and design approach that will enhance the standing of our proud, tradition rich franchise and inspire our sponsors, fans and community for the next 100 years.

At least they admit that the sponsors were the prime consideration here.

Why the hell is Ron Rivera so involved in selecting a new team name? He’s been employed by the team for like 6 months and has never coached a game.

One host in particular is worried that this is not what Rivera signed up for - especially having to answer questions about the name change as soon as he is hired - and he's going to get burned out quickly.

He’s in for a very rude awakening that’s for sure
To go from the panthers to the Redskins is a giant jump
