  • Looks like they’ve settled on The Commanders.

    I haven’t read anything about their mascot yet.

  • I look forward to their PR photos with Russell Crowe, Daniel Snyder, and some unfortunate guy in the uniform for their cross-promotion with the 2003 naval war movie Master And Commander.

    That movie was one of the most accurate representations of naval warfare ever made.. the fighting and tactics of that period are very much on point.

  • 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.

  • So the shortened nickname will be Commies?

    Actually, that whole damn division, NFC East are commies.

  • The Washington Generals lost 16,000 games to the Globetrotters so they picked the closest name they could get.

  • Dumb name.

    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'm offended!  

  • 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. 

  • i like the W on the helmet

  • 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.

    They could've opted to put a "New Red Potato" on the side of the helmet lol...
