NFL fans are trolling the team formerly known as the Redskins for revealing their hotly-anticipated new name on Thursday: Washington Football Team. 
In an announcement on Thursday, the team said: 'We're retiring our old name - and building a new kind of team. For the upcoming season, we're calling ourselves The Washington Football Team.' 
The new logo is the word Washington with the 'Football Team, EST 1932' beneath it. It replaces the old logo, which was of an Native American chief.

    Pathetic name.
“A new kind of team” Yikes!
Washington was a slaveowner, and “established in the 1930’s” oh man, lots of racially uncool stuff was going on back then.

    Well, “team” is racist. So that will have to go in the next round of triggered riots of easily offended people.

    I kind of like the DC Reptiles as a name, reflective of the people there. Or, Swamp Rats maybe.
