Washington Commanders lol

If they were going for a vague name, they might as well went with Warriors. There were other better names too. Reds or Redtails with both using the Red Tail Hawk as the mascot. The Warthogs I really like also. They just made the process way harder for themselves.

It's still funny. How about them Commies? Love to see it. So perfect. I hope that POS regrets that name and has to pay to change it again at some point.

-You, 1960s

American Indians didn’t even care about the name. Maybe we should listen to them instead of woke white people.

Shoulda gone with the Washington Silly Nannies.

It's about as good as the Washington Gerrymanderers.

Well I guess Washington Commies it is.

To actually get all brand-splaning and designery about it--It is super generic and awkward to say. And the logo/merch leaks look awful.

Also, a 3-syllable hometown & 3-syllable nickname is just clunky.  2-3, 3-2, 4-2, 2-2 all work, 3-3 rarely works.  NE and TB are the only extensive ones, but both fit their areas.  

Washington Commanders just has a bad flow to it.  This is pretty awful branding.  

Washington Hogs would have actually been pretty boss.  Redwolves sure (the clear fan favorite).  Or if military, really any other designation would have been better. 

Beyond the title, the very act of "commanding" instills ordering, authoritative direction.  Just very odd.

Commies is so fitting of DC right now.  They probably just polled the local folks who thought it would be a wonderful name.

[Matthias]

The commandos.

I get how Redskins can be offensive, but why couldn't they have stuck with the Native American theme?  Tribe, Warriors, Natives etc...  Literally nobody outside of the media that HAS to call them this ridiculous that will actually use this joke name.

[LegioX]

Cobra Commander would have been a better name.
