They had damn well better be dubbed the Senators. (The DC types resent that name because they don't have representation in Congress.)

Las Vegas; Norfolk, Va.; Monterrey, Mexico; Portland, Ore.; and Northern Virginia also made bids, but Washington clearly took the lead during negotiations over recent weeks, strengthened by its wealthy population base and a financial package that would build a new stadium primarily with taxpayers' money.How appropriate-- brought to Washington by suckling the taxpayer teat. . .

Calling them the Senators would not be cool, the last two teams with that name moved, bad luck.
They should use one of the team names from the Negro League, like the Grays or the Monarchs or Crawfords or Barons.

I've read the Texas Rangers (formerly the W. Senators)
have the rights to the name Senators, though.
