What will be the new name for the Washington Redskins?

The Washington You Know The Thing

[Nanker]

The Washington Crackpipes. 
If not that , then The Anacostia Stanky Hoes. 

[Taro T]

They should resurrect a classic: The Washington Bullets.  Their unis are already dried blood & pus colored, so they've got that part of the branding covered.

How about the “Washington Insurrection”?

 

They could wear little black ‘1/6’ decals on their helmets and have a moment of silence before each game to commemorate the day Democracy was destroyed.

 

Their mascot could be a dipshit in a fur vest and buffalo horns.

Lets see... the Nationals, Capitals, Wizards are names of the three other major sports teams. The Wizards really are outside of what the team name should be unless you are a conspiracy theorist.

 

Lets go with the 'Lobbyists'. Since they already rule Washington, might as well pay tribute to them.

How about the peckers?

They'd still be the 'Skins.

Ed Wang approves of your suggestion with all his heart.

Could always call the team the Washington Congress since they're a group of powerful men who most certainly value wins, and personal exposure [think of A. Rodgers, as C. Schumer] above all else; even to the detriment of their opponents.  They play a regular schedule of games and compete for the same things over and over.  In the final analysis, the outcomes don't truly have any real impact on the welfare of the world around us.

 

Yeah, that's it, call them the Washington Congress.

I'm surprised nobody suggested the Washington Generals.

Already taken.  The Washington Generals are the Harlem Globetrootters perpetual opponent

 

But you were close.  It's gonna be the Washington Admirals.

Plus, Lee and Jackson were generals, so "Generals" would be an expressed support of slavery.

 

Who's their mascot going to be, Grace Hopper?

By the same logic, Admirals are an expression of colonialism

 

Mascot will probably be this guy

I was thinking they could appease the Redskins and make Custer their mascot.

Fought that oppressor Stuart to a standstill at Gettysburg, killed trying to oppress Native Americans.

 

Custer should be every woke progressive's hero.

If they do become the "Washington Admirals," I sincerely hope the Cowboys blast "In The Navy" during Washington games in Dallas.

IIRC, the Redskins' corporate sponsors (FedEx, Nike) essentially forced Snyder to change the name.   If Snyder had his way, they would still be the Redskins.

  Yes, Snyder never wanted to change the name but lacks the cash to be the dominating force in the organization.

He was staring down the barrel of an NFL colonoscopy over the internal workings/sexual harassment by the NFL as well.  I'm pretty sure he was backed into a corner with no escape.

This is a good point.  Between the NFL investigating the organization for workplace harassment and his corporate sponsors threatening to pull their funds, Snyder probably didn't have anywhere to go.  I would like to see the name Redskins to return since the organization has a long and proud tradition, though I also want Snyder to squirm.  It's a shame that many of today's owners aren't nearly the type of people that the founding owners were.
