    Dumb name.

    Almost right up there with Guardians, but not quite.

    Commander is an officer rank in the Navy. The Washington Admirals sounds much better to me.

    Maybe they should have chosen a name like Homesteaders to continue to symbolize the rivalry with the Cowboys.

    I liked WFT, and it was in the running...   

    Guardians blows.... And Dolan is a puss for changing the name... IMHO, Indians is no more racist than Chiefs, Blackhawks, or Seminoles...  I'm not much of a baseball fan, but I know several folks up in Cleveland who turned in their Wahoo cards over the name change.  

    It's been mentioned elsewhere, this up in arms "racist" crap is from a minute contingent of radical Native Americans.

    I don't think Washington fans would care for the Naval Academy's mascot though....  😁

    The mascot has a higher IQ than many DC denizens and politicians

    I was pretty 'eh' on the name Guardians at first, but it's starting to grow on me.

    Mostly because nothing is more entertaining than seeing old white guys throw a fit over not getting their way. Never fails to amuse me.

    So stupid to change these names because they hurt some peoples feelings

    What would've been wrong with the Red Wolves?  A wolf head to work with for a logo.  (this was said today on 92 The Fan)  A guy I know is a life-long Redskins fans.  Redskins everything in his man cave.  I asked him as part of a Birthday facebook wish, What do you think of the new nickname?  -  He hasn't responded.

    I guess they figured, the Generals and the Senators were already used....and apparently it had to be something political or military.

    I saw Eric Turner and Sean Taylor.  The new NFL is trending toward Arena football.  Call every team the San Jose SaberCats.  Minimal contact.  Yeah for Giselle and Tom Brady.  Trans community in one family.. Todays touch football.  Yuck.

    Personally I would have liked to see them named the Washington Veterans. It would pay homage to the people who gave their lives for this country and the ones who served and are serving right now, plus Arlington National Cemetery is in D.C.  Don't know is Veterans was on the list for possible names?
