I find it hard to believe they'd say it's NOT then go with it. In your favor, this rebranding has been exactly that inept

God I hope not but you're probably right. In my mind Im thinking a football name should strike fear and have that intimidation status. Playing the Admirals sounds like you're playing against a bunch of dads. Warthogs is bad ass same as Redwolves and even Brigade but nothing this team does makes any sense. I would not even rule out Presidents... the worst sorry ass name ever.New rumor about validity of the name being Admirals
I am not rooting for the name to be Admirals but pretty much anyone who makes it to Admiral in the Navy is a bad ass. The Admiral's picture I posted yesterday is a perfect example. Navy Pilot, 7 year POW etc. etc. All that said it sounds like a USFL name.New rumor about validity of the name being Admirals
Larry David?? Is that you?Another reason why I hope it's not Commanders. It doesn't roll off the tongue easy. Every name in the NFL has either one or two syllables which makes it easy to get out. Most of whom have easy nicknames to roll in conversation. Phins, Jags, Hawks etc... and if they do have three syllables or more they have cool nicknames you always hear used in place of... like.,, Pats, Cards, Bucs, Niners. They have flow. My point being is that Commanders can only be said in one way. Which is the entire full name. As with everything it always comes down to Seinfeld.
Jerry: The name has no flow. No flow.
Kramer: Jerry I need flow. Now you know I can't live without flow.
Jerry: No flow. None. Zelcho.
Kramer: Oh momma
George: Wait, who has no flow
Jerry: The new name for Washington that's who
George: No flow
Jerry: No flow
George: George is getting angry
(Elaine walks in) So what are you all three moping about.
Jerry, George and Kramer at the same time: No flow!
So there's that for whatever this post is worth...lol.
In fairness if the name Redskins had never existed, and Dan decided to go with that, the entire fanbase would be like WTF is a Redskin. That's horrible!COMMANDERS is such a non football name. More like soccer or arena league.
