Good chance team name gets changed per report.

Grant and Danny - Thing or not a thing; Josh Harris not wearing a Commanders polo

Harris strikes me as a guy that wants to really win over the fanbase. Bought hundreds of beers on day one.

He knows the fans are broken and it's his job to heal them.

I'm 99% sure we are getting a new name. I definitely think Redskins is in play and they will make an honest behind the scenes effort to get there.

In the event they come up short, I think they will try to find something that allows them to bring the old logo back (Warriors, Braves, WFT with the logo).

All that fails, I think they turn to Redwolves. It's the one name besides Redskins that has or had any kind of momentum.

i could go with redwolves or warriors,either would be fine.

All the Major merchandise people won't sale Redskins gear. That was the problem the name is not coming back

I agree it's a long shot, but you can still get Redskins jerseys on fanatics. If they did get Redskins across the finish line it would have to be approved by the NFL which means NFL.com would be in play.

The name change was a strong arm move by the minority owners to get Dan to sell. Probably right though

Good article in the Athletic describing how Harris and Gibbs met and become friendly. Some of Harris visions and how he is going to use Joe as a resourcee.

i support the redskins name . its a long shot because of wokism , but commanders has got to go or i wont but a scrap of merchandise

I cannot support the Commies name. I actively rooted against them last year. The Redskins name is the "Only" reason I became a fan as a kid over 50 yrs ago. Although, the owner change has lightened me up a bit. I am not from the east coast, so I couldn't care less about some random explanation team from Washington DC. For me it's Redskins or Warriors, maybe Warthogs, anything less is very hard to get behind.

Commanders has to go. I'm at the point where if they gave us the Superbowl uniforms back and went with WFT, I'd be ecstatic. Seeing these on the field again would buy Harris at least five years of goodwill.

You're the new owner of a team you just spent 6B on; you have your choice of any type of Commanders merch you can think of, it's your first home game and you opt for the burgundy polo with no logo.

Yeah, all that Commanders gear is going to be collectors items in about a year or two.

He knows the fans don't like the Commanders name and maybe even wants it gone since Dan picked it. It will be interesting what he decides. I think he would like Redskins back like most of us long time friends.

And the woke sponsors threatened to abandon his team financially.

 

[Sportster 72]

I'd love to see the Redskin name reinstated. I think if there is a way to pull it off with intelligence Josh Harris can do it but there will always be detractors. I would be okay with Warriors, Braves or something related to IPs that they are okay with too.

Native Americans leading Redskins petition outraged that a Washington Commanders rep called them 'fake group'

The Native American Guardians Association, which are leading a petition to get the Washington Commanders to reclaim their historic Redskins name, were called "a fake group."

Wow! Okay.....that changes things for me. I usually don't see Native Americans speaking when someone from this group gives an interview.

Did you read the article ? They arent fake

I know. That employee should be fired.

I read the first part on my way out the door. I'm going to finish it once things settle down at work. If this is truly a NA led group we might have an outside shot.

 

[redskinsfan1963]

been a redskins fan since the george allen days,while i would give anything to have redskins back i think it,s unlikely.i will go with anything other than commanders which has snyder all over it,anything with that prick has to go.
