Wash. Wimps. Woke. Wusses.

Any one of them would work.

George Washington’s favorite horse of all was Nelson, a chestnut charger who carried the General safety throughout the Revolutionary War..

Therefore…
Washington Nelson’s

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

New idea: adopt a symbol that cannot be pronounced, and then they could be the Football Team formerly Known as the Redskins.

Well, since naming a team after something is an insult, what better option than the Washington Whiteys?

Or, Trigger; Roy Rogers' horse.

Or, Silver, the Lone Ranger's horse.

Even more connected to the team's original name, Scout - Tonto's horse. Of course, Tonto's horse was named Scout in the TV series, but White Feller in the early Lone Ranger novels. Tonto first rode a horse named "White Feller" .

That last option might take us back to "Trigger"

Agree with this. Phuck the so called natives. Go with something totally different. If Indians want to be forgotten about, forget about them.

I don’t think they were the ones who caused that. It was all white people.

Back in the 60’s, most of us season ticket holders called them the “foreskins” or the “deadskins”...
