Washington NFL team to use 'Washington Football Team' for 2020 season
ESPN ^ | July 23, 2020 | Adam Schefter

Effective immediately, Washington will call itself the "Washington Football Team" pending the adoption of a new name, the franchise announced.

This is not a final renaming and rebranding for the team; this is the name it wants to use until the adoption of a new name at some point.

The team will continue the process of retiring the former name and hopes to be entirely rid of it on physical and digital spaces in the next 50 days, by the Sept. 13 regular-season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles.

They tear down Washington statues because he was a slave owner, and rename the Redskins to memorialize him. It’s no wonder they are putting up a presidential candidate with dementia...they seriously just don’t notice.

I KNEW it was going to come to this...

They just need to number the teams somehow. Maybe east to west? Biggest market value? Order of admission to the NFL? Alphabetical by city?

How can they keep the "Washington" name? He was an evil man in the eyes of the wokesters. Just go with "Football Team #12."

"The Dubyas?"

That would be a good one. Or maybe "Stay outta' da' Bushes." Did you see that Dr. Fauci is going to be throwing out the first pitch between Yankees and Nationals?
