Why don't they name it after a local tribe like the Anacostans or Pamunkey, since the left wants to erase Native Americans.

My question is what will they replace the “Washington” with?

Just shorten it from “Redskins” to “Reds” and put a hammer and sickle on the helmet.

How about “The Pansies”? Sure the Left would love that.

I find their current name to be both endearing and ironic. They should keep it.

Seems like either the Lizards, or the Totalitarians, should be the leading names.
However, having coldblooded Communists denigrating Lizards is a valid objection to that first name.
To: nickcarraway
I would just stick with “Football Team”, then you have to give the real name to tell the story.

Some already refer to it as “The Nation’s Capital Football Team”, so it gets rid of the “Washington” as well.

Great idea.
They should all be football team number __ and eliminate names completely.

Since the NFL is ‘So Gay’ (their words, not mine), I would suggest the Washington Rainbow Poofters. Or, the DC Pillow Biters. Or, the Northern Virginia Sausage Kings.

If Washington Redskins was offensive why not just rename them the District Redskins or Columbia Redskins?

Too violent, especially when you consider they made a gang war movie with that name in the late 70s.

I heard Cincinatti Reds became Red Legs in the 1950s to avoid the association with Commie Reds.
