Clever.

DC FOOTBALL is what I would pick.  But you know a large segment are going to wear the old gear for years to make a point.

Potomac Paddlers.

Wait.  Wrong river.

Potomac Peddlers.

This right here 

Athletic Club of the District of Columbia...or AC/DC when brevity is required.

Of those suggested, I like the Wingers.  I also like the Pigskins suggestion, as it allows the Hogettes to stay relevant.

I'm sure it will end up being something with no creativity, Generals, Sentinels, Monuments, Senators, Congress, Statesmen, blah, blah, yawn.

From an article on ESPN concerning the name change:

Rivera told the Post it is important that a new nickname respects Native American culture and traditions, while also saluting the military. Rivera is the son of an Army officer.

 

Is all of that important for the nickname?   If so, why?

They're using that for the G-League team in the NBA.

Check all the boxes.

And why did Ron take the job if the name was so problematic?

Respecting Native American Indigenous people AND the military?

There is only one answer...I introduce the Washington Code Talkers.

 

Oh wait...the Japanese might be offended.

I’ll eventually think of something.

Odds have the Jeffersons at +700??

Then, how about the Washington Weezies??

 

 

Why not just change the image to the redskin potato and call it a day

Have a few Native American friends/acquaintances and they've been banging on this for years. It's time for a change.

I see the Cleveland Indians are likely to do the same. I think they should bring back the Cleveland Spiders.

Naps.

I actually paddled a kayak on the Potomac, so maybe they could be the Washington Infected Open Sores.

Everyone is ok with offending Asians.

If they want to keep the Native American logo, then what the franchise needs to do is talk to a local tribe and get permission to use their name, just like how Florida State gets permission from Seminole nation to use the Seminole as their mascot.

Well, that's got some interesting logo possibilities.

So Redskins have to change? I don't watch the news anymore but has anything been said about the Chiefs? What about the Cowboys? Seems like everything is getting cancelled by the mob so what about those racist Cowboys that roamed this land back in the 1800's? I saw the Indians stuff was curious about other team names? Texans? there has been a time Texans were racist so that represents a racist right? 

Cowboys won’t be a target until after the Texas Rangers get served.  I’m surprised that a team name based on a law enforcement agency with a blatantly checkered history in race relations hasn’t come under fire yet.

Since you don't read or watch the news, you might be interested to know that no mob demanded the name be changed at this particular moment. FedEx and other corporate sponsors of the Washington franchise wanted the name changed. So if corporations are the mobs then maybe you'll have something else to whine about. If AT&T, Nike, and Pepsi want the Cowboys to change their name then maybe they'll ask for that. But they won't so stop fretting over hyperbolic scenarios that aren't in the cards.

Chief Wahoo's already gone, unless you buy it at retail stores in Ohio (for some reason). But yeah, based on the statement the team put out, they're also mulling a change.

EDIT: There is a reason, thanks Wikipedia:

However, as to maintain their trademark on the logo, along with the words 'Tribe' and 'Wahoo', and prevent their dilution, the team continues to sell limited merchandise with Chief Wahoo, only in its physical team store.

He's already been eliminated in an official capacity, but there is still shit being sold with it, and that likely will end soon too.
