OMG
There is a reference to an Old Southern joke about Indians there.
Idiots
The left will reject this out of hand....................cultural appropriation or war mongers or some other silliness.............
Tyrants.
In other words, African-American Pilots of Color who flew for the Patriarchy. Probably brainwashed by the establishment into volunteering for another White war of oppression. (/sarc, in case you didn’t know)
how about the DC Cowards? DC Swamp Gators?
Wouldn’t that be racist? Making light of the real Redtail heros?
That would be pretty much the same logic used to can the existing names. . . .
Part of this stupid game is bringing to bear enough power to MAKE you change. “Redtail” will be ok for a while . . . until somebody else decides they want to be offended. Senseless dribble. . . .
I’m fairly certain that “redtail” is slang for loose Indian women — at least it was in the Western state where I went to college in the 80s.
What about the Germans who were killed by the Tuskegee Airmen? Might their descendants be offended?
Washington Spendthrifts.
My entry is.....
The Washington Wagonburners!
See how the two Ws just go together?
Its melodious.
How about the Wild Tchoupitoulas? They are black Indians.
see and hear them at:

replace the Indian head with "R" and keep everything else the same
They should have simply changed their mascot to a red potato. No name change would have been necessary.
These folks dont hang out at the zoo, do they?
Zacashaway
the Washington Zacashaway
Washington Wimps , Washington Washedups
Just give all the teams numbers. The Washington Redskins then become “Football Team 17” or whatever. Generic and boring? So what? I’m not going to watch it anyhow.
Washington My Pillow Fighters
