I find it hard to believe NFL survives “wokeness”. Does anyone care what they call themselves once they are no longer the Redskins?

[Telepathic Intruder]

The Washington Ambiguities. But it’s still racist until they change the name of Washington D.C.

[Leaning Right]

I am very disappointed. I suggested “The D.C. Criminals” as the new team name. It worked on so many levels. But my genius was ignored yet again.

Does it matter? They no longer have any skin in the game...

Further, didnt Washington own slaves?

[LeonardFMason]

The Washington CUCKOLDS.

[Dogbert41]

Should be the Washington Boys Club.

[sheehan]

rumor is that the NFL will not approve a new team name until the team is sold....

Snyder out - Bezo$ in

[Celerity]

Reminds me of opposing team to the Harlem globetrotters...

The generals.

[moovova]

Washington Generic Group of Guys.

[Mathews]

Woulda been better if they called themselves Washington Team Football, or W.T.F. for short!

[Rightwing Conspiratr1]

“football” is ableist cause some people don’t have feet and some don’t have balls (like the team’s owners).

[Dilbert San Diego]

They play in suburban Maryland, and are not within the boundaries of the District of Columbia.

[Phillyred]

But but but....washington owwwwned slavessssss. Now what?

Maybe they can just be called “The Plain Vanillas,” unless that’s considered too white.

The Washington [Redacted]

[CJ Wolf]

Washington Wainbows?

[dp0622]

We HAVE TO change the name of a state and of course DC too!!!

Where does one go to get a petition started?

I gotta do this. The squirming will be great.

And if they do take action they’ll lose even more sane voters. :)

I was hoping for “Washington Wedgie”
