The Washington Redtails? The odds-on favorite to replace 'Redskins' gives a nod to the Tuskegee Airmen of WWII - and the trademark holder says team owner Dan Snyder can have it for free

Yeah, Right! EVERYONE KNOWS THAT! /s

Here is a thought. In whatever setting, boardroom, classroom, subway, bus, dinner table.... somebody says or suggests something STUPID or WOKE, LAUGH OUT LOUD. I mean a real belly laugh. Followed by “you weren’t actually serious were you? If they say yes, belly laugh again.

It’s time to start SHAMING these imbeciles.

[faucetman]

Instead of “foot ball, you bet” it’s football, who cares.

[blueplum]

why does every wyt symbol being destroyed have to be replaced with a black-centric term ?

how about Washington Tips? (from Tipperary)

That name would more accurately reflect the historical background of DC, Foggy Bottom and Swampoodle

[fortheDeclaration]

Dishonoring to those brave men to have their name put on a team through intimation.

[Vermont Lt]

This is such crap.

Team nicknames are just that, fun informal names. They aren’t supposed to be “woke.”

[faucetman]

The Washington Redtails? You mean “Red” as in INDIANS or RED Men, or RED SKINS?

Yeah Red Tails, good idea. /s

[Vermont Lt]

Biased again even numbers. Why do they have to be “odd?”

/sarc

[vpintheak]

The problem is a colorless, gray, boring, and mindless world; is that you will offend anyone for anything at any time. Colors, actual physical colors, are offensive these days.

[eyedigress]

I vote Swamp Things.

Put a pic of Adrienne Barbeau on the helmet.

[Huskrrrr]

The Washington Red-Inkers.

[MortMan]

Apparently they don’t, although baboons can also sport blue in their rumps.

[Repent and Believe]

Breaking (fake) news: The Washington Thinskins!

Or how about the Washington Sceerdeecats

Or how about the Washington thought police?

Wait a minute! They can’t use Washington’s name; wasn’t he one of those evil inferior white folk?!

How about the USSR Secret Police instead of the Washington Redskins?

Or how about the Rwandan Machettes?

There ya-go, team, just a few ideas you might accept.

So we're going to take away the honor from a group of a brave noble minority and give it to another group of brave noble people from another minority.

Good luck. That will last about 5 years before the Marxists feign outrage.

[This I Wonder32460]

Redtail Hawks ?

[petitfour]

Well, at least one person knew what I meant. lol

I really hope they do not choose Redtails because I will never be able to associate that name with anything other than fertile female baboons. hahaha

[Palio di Siena]

My vote is for “the DC 3’s”.
They could have a cool airplane logo.

[RinaseaofDs]

I can get behind this. Redtails were bad assess. Never lost a bomber.

[HotHunt]

If they're hung up on the "red skin" color, which all these liberals seem to find offensive, change the name to the Redheads. I know a few redheads and I doubt they'd be offended.
