Seeing as DC is controlled by the democRATS, an appropriate name would be the RATS.

LOL!!!

It will screw up sports best fight song.

Sports best fight song? Of course you're grossly exaggerating. Fight songs belong in colleges, where the whole genre originated decades before there was an NFL. If you compare "Hail to the Redskins" with the majority of the college fight songs, "Hail to the Redskins" would lose badly.

Good satire there, Mr. Chips. But even in the era of Obama, I don't think that a team named “Reds” with promotion and branding modeled on Communism would sell. From a practical business point of view, there's no reason to change “Redskins,” and the current owner should be praised for not knuckling under (yet) to leftist demands.
