The Washington Redskins plan to announce Monday morning that they will change their team name, three people with knowledge of the situation confirmed Sunday night. The team is not expected to reveal a new name until a later date.

They’re kind of leading the way - I suggest, “The Washington Foreskins”

Everyone that purchased Redskin’s gear in the year or so should take them to court.

Sports are for children as a tool to keep them out of trouble. Adults “playing” sports is weird. ( Except for golf of course ).

The DC Bitches
The 14th Street Reds (Whores)
The Deep State Turds
The Beltway Bastards
Move the stadium to S.E. DC and you can call them the Anacostia Asswipes.

As you may note from my somewhat acidic suggestions I’m an old, old Redskins fan. Since ‘55.

Heh- that is what I thought of too. The Washington Generals. What better name for a team that will kneel down to BLM.

(An aside - the Globetrotters had AMAZING talent over the years. Such a great story and team. My old man took me to see them - early 70’s I suppose.)
