You cannot have our Redskins name taken, and then our Nationals. Presumably, the Capitals would be next, for obvious reasons, leaving us only with the Wizards and the United, unless you count the Mystics, which no non-lesbians do. The United probably has to go given that we are a hopelessly divided nation, unless it is a reference to the unity between the Democrats and the GOPe. Gone too are the Wizards (a name that, given the make up of the NBA, is somewhat, albeit unintentionally, hilarious).

I would, however, like to have a national referendum to rename all of the DC sports teams. I suspect that such a referendum would yield some revealing results.

No no no. You misunderstand me. "Redskins" isn't offensive, nor is "Nationals" or "Capitals." Washington is offensive. And the vast majority of Americans are right there with me.

Well, the real Texas Rangers (LEOs not the team) carry guns so I guess “Rangers” (team name not the LEOs) is not long for this world.
