If it was still the Redskins it would be worth twice as much.

My 19 year old daughter heard the new name, and said that it sounded like the name of a fake college team in a movie. I think they should have stuck with "Washington Football Team". Redskins, or nothin'.

I think Washington Indigenous Peoples has a nice ring to it.

From Redskins to “Commanders.” I know they’re trying to be PC, and the reference is probably to the US Naval Academy. However, my wife’s reaction was that “Commanders” reminded her of the misogynistic bad guys in “The Handmaiden” series.

For me, it brought the image of being commanded by Washington DC.
