Yes, I know that a few months ago I advised Roger Goodell that I’m done with the NFL. And I’ve held to it, although some games have been on our TV. Sister Babe likes having the games on in the background sometimes, and I’m not going to push on her my personal choices. It has been weird though, seeing for the first time in decades all of my Eagles gear collecting dust in the fall & winter. And that makes it even stranger that I would randomly be thinking about a team I used to root against as a division rival. But the thought hit me nonetheless.
As you probably know, The Redskins’ owner, Daniel Snyder, finally got pressured into changing the team name, and spent the season under the ridiculous monicker “The Washington Football Team”, a phrase I’ll never use. They decided to wait a year to announce the new name, and I’m sure that they’ve gotten no shortage of suggestions. But if they want to make amends with the DC sports fan base, Daniel Snyder needs to sell the team. The second best thing to do would be to follow my advice.
First, kiss the burgandy and gold colors goodbye. Stay with me Redskin Nation, I’m going somewhere with this.You’re new team colors? None other than the good old red, white, and blue! Some of you probably see where this is headed.
And your new team name? Drumroll please…. The Washington Bullets! As some of you may know, The Washington Bullets were this town’s NBA franchise until 1997 when the PC Mob pressured them to change their name to the DC heritage appropriate… Washington Wizards? To add insult to injury they followed that annoying 90s trend of abandoning their traditional team colors for the trendy teal and black. Eventually the old team colors came back, but the dopy team name remains.
Changing to The Bullets serves the dual benefit of both showing love to DC sports fans while sticking a gigantic middle finger at the woke mob that took their scalp (pun intended). So what do you say, Danny Boy? Care to take a tip from one of your old employees (my first job in DC when I first moved here back in ’99 was for one of Snyder’s marketing outfits.)? The ball is in your court – don’t miss this opportunity to make right with your fans!

My vote is for the Washington Milquetoast.
The Washingtn Thieves
Assault rifles and the new cheer for a TD Pewpewpew!
How some hold up a d and a fence just add the word self.
I prefer leaving them the redskins. But change the logo to a redskin potato. Last time I checked there wasn’t a potato tribe to get upset.
The descriptions of wins or losses practically write themselves.
I like The Washington Thinskins!
Washington Bolsheviks.
Washington Rioters? Storm the Cowboys!
Washington Mask Mandates?
Washington Epidemics?
Washington Fondlers? Their logo could be a pair of groping hands.
Washington Garrison, in honor of the perpetual military presence to defend the most popular president* in world history from his adoring masses.
Most appropriate, though, would be the Washington Cowardly Pussies to honor their owner and the NFL.
I like the Washington Foreskins. We have a bunch of dicks running the country so it is appropriate.
@James R: I’ve been calling them that since I first heard an old buddy drop that phrase 30 years agoo…
GAY WashingtonTeam or Pedoplile Team.in honor of joey the pedophile. not to leave out Kamalslut Skins.
the not, pedophile pres is designing a “pedoplile flag ” for all know and closet pedopliled to be displayed at all embessays around the world.
