  • The fact that their "Chief Content Officer" [aka the play-by-play voice] is resigning under 24h before this gets out is.. Telling.

  • So are they guilty even before being accused? Or will they only be guilty once they are accused?? 

    It's so hard to keep up these days.....

    We are allowed to speculate if we wish. It's not legally binding. I am looking at all this smoke, and...where there is smoke.........

  • The rumor is that Dan Snyder was behind a fraudulent truck stop rebate scheme that robbed truckers out of millions upon millions of dollars. 

    Oh... wait... 

  • Daily Snark May tell that this is a hoax / Satire 

  • Poor Ron Rivera!! Good - man wrong Owner... 

  • The Red Baron Story - Red Baron Pizzeria

    The Red Barons.

    We may not be the only team with no logo on our helmets this year.  If they play that is.

    It baffles me why he seemingly jumped at this job as fast as he could... the only thing that made sense was that Washington D.C. isn't that far from Charlotte, and maybe he didn't want to uproot his family? 

  • The Maryland Tolerations

  • Yup.. Fake... Right on par with Snopes and the Nat'l Enquirer.....

  • The Washington White Houses would probably go over like a fart in church,  That said, the boss in the White House would rather save monuments than lives so why not make them the Washington Monuments?

    I still like my idea of the Washington Orangeskins.

    Their fight song could be the Russian national anthem.

    I suggested Monuments.  

    But who wants to bet they won't go with something alliterative, like the Wizards.

    Washington Warmongers? Washington White Winged Doves?  Washington Wheelbarrows of Cash?

    Sorry about the Monuments thing. Let's correct change my redundancy to great idea Gips!  Maybe we could get our minds of the 5 time draft dodger in tarnishing the Presidency in Washington DC and put a picture of George Washington's face on the helmet.  He was a General in the Military that commanded the respective of everyone best known for his integrity.  Just to remind some people that integrity is the ability to do the right thing when noone is looking. My how that went skydiving when some brat took inventory of testicles in the Republican Party, counted 0 and said I'm the only chance you sissies have at winning an election).   And, if you want your careers to continue - you better not bad mouth me or I will see to it your next opponent in the election gets a glowing endorsement from me.  They're are still very church mouse quiet as we speak except for those ready to retire soon; and the guy from Maryland who tells the truth...

    So...Peckerwoods instead of Woodpeckers?

  • Washington has announced that they are just going to be called the Washington Football Team this year....and this is the logo they give us:

    image.jpeg.50138d833d1d48125c0abd2560a346e2.jpeg

    So....what immediately struck me here with this  is that  they could just choose for themselves an old, traditional football team name:

    The Washington  Maroons.

    There was a team in Pottsville Pa. called the Maroons,  who have a somewhat legitimate claim in my mind to have been given the 1925 championship.  Instead it was awarded to the Cardinals.    By the way...FYI, the Cardinals  (Chicago/St.L/Ariz.)   are NOT named after the bird...but after the color  Cardinal, which is a deep reddish color.

    There was also an NFL team called the Kenosha Maroons.

    So, why not the Washington Maroons.  It is traditional,  it is non-offensive. There are other teams with the names of colors:   Cincinnati Reds, St. Louis Blues....even the Cleveland Browns.

  • This article argues against the use of the name Maroons,  claiming that the Redskins were never the Maroons.

    But...who the hell ever said they were. 

    https://coalregioncanary.com/2020/07/05/redskins-name-change-maroons/

    The  Tennessee Titans were never the New York Titans, but they resurrected that name.

    The Houston Texans were never the  Dallas Texans....either the NFL or the AFL version....but they resurrected that name. 

    Of course, per this article,  the Redskins were at one time the Boston Braves, and also came out of the Cleveland Indians football team.  

    But they were also descended from the  Newark  Tornadoes.   So maybe they could become the Tornadoes again.
