Washington Football Club name update

[Irondawg]

These guys move as fast as other things in Washington apparently. I had kind of forgotten that this was still lingering out there:


Washington Football Team President Jason Wright ruled out the 'Warriors' as an option for a new nickname and logo.
"We made it a priority to run an inclusive process to listen to all voices," Wright wrote in a briefing via the team's website. "This engagement demonstrated to us a consensus that moving forward with no ties to Native American imagery is the right path. Feedback from across communities we engaged clearly revealed deep-seated discomfort around Warriors, with the clear acknowledgment that it too closely aligns with Native American themes. To that end, we will choose an identity that unequivocally departs from any use of or approximate linkage to Native American imagery." Nonetheless, the organization is reportedly "down to a short list of final names" that will eventually be revealed once a single moniker is settled on.

Unpopular opinion: they should just keep Washington Football Team and be done with it.

I don't think that opinion is as unpopular as you may think.

I actually like that. It sounds classic.

[BeardoMSU]

I actually like that. It sounds classic.

Agreed. It's grown on me, as well.

Also, re: City Bagel: Red-pepper parmesan bagel, toasted, with carrot-walnut-raisin-cream cheese. Perfection.

[ShotgunDawg]

How about Savages or Engines?

[DownwardDawg]

Washington Honkies
Washington crackers

I would not be offended one bit by either of those.

I used to get the breakfast red pepper parmesan (their objectively best bagel) and the asiago cheese breakfast bagel. Then I would put Cholula on top...mmmm. Also, I kind of liked that your drink was a single can of coke from the freezer. It made you savor it.

Whatever their energy bars were too. A got one and one for the road if I wanted to indulge.

Miss that place. But hey! We have Bojangles now!

Washington Insurrections

[DownwardDawg]

What strange times we're living in these days.

[FISHDAWG]

how about the Washington Cavalry **

[Lord McBuckethead]

I like Washington Football Team as their name. I would also go with Sentinels.

Here are some suggestions for a DC based team:

You have a point, from each persons point of view all people can agree with this one. None of that is helpful though.
"Liberty" would be a good name.
"Minutemen" would be better if it were in Massachussetts
"Federalist"
"Statesmen"
"Vangaurdsmen"

Some good ones here. Plenty of patriotic nicknames could apply to a DC based sports team.

No....keep going, I couldn't argue against any of those.

No....keep going, I couldn't argue against any of those.

The Washington "Stop the Steal's"

The Washington "Mike Pence wasn't strong enough's"

The Washington "Coup d'etat's"

The Washington "Massive Dump's"

The Washington "Back the Blue's ('cept for Capitol Police)"

[Coach34]

Golden State promised to protest is why they didn’t use that one

[Lord McBuckethead]

I wish the Army of the Potomac had a crafty nickname. That would be a great pull from history.
