“You want me to make a controversial statement?” Trump said “I would. I wouldn’t have changed the name. It just doesn’t have the same, it doesn’t have the same ring to me.”
The prospect of a (name)change comes at a time when the Commanders could be going to Trump to get a deal done that would get a new facility to be built. Which means that, if they seek his help, they may have to do something in return.
That something could include naming the stadium after the 45th/47th president. It could mean re-naming the team. It could be both

Washington Big Spenders?
Washington Wasters?
Washington Duds?
Washington Grifters?
Washington Insiders?
Washington Thieves?
Washington ?
The name “Commanders” sounds like something a pee-wee league team would come up with.
The Washington Diversities?
Commanders was a terrible choice. I think I would’ve done what you suggested, had I been in a position to do so.
I also would’ve rebuilt the Twin Towers exactly as they were as a big FU to Bin Laden, and put them where the new “Freedom” tower is. I won’t ever forget them, and I miss them when I see the skyline of NYC.
They could have just shortened it to “Reds”.
Washington has nothing to do with the Comanches. It should be called the Washington Potomacs after the native Indian tribe in the Washington DC area
Synder was a sleazebag. But he wasn't the only one. All he had to do was to ride out 2020.
“Could have called them the Washington Bullets.”
There was a contest for the Wizards name change... radio call-in, write in, votes... the whole 9 yards.
I called in and got on the air with my “non-violent” name... (the why... to the Bullets change). I explained to the DJ why I chose thus name,
1. It wasn’t violent and
2. It it didn’t stray too far from the original.
My entry... “The Luv Bullets”
The DJ even let it slip through the filter!
It didn’t make the cut.
The DC Dasies.

The DC Nine Millimeters.
“The Washington Command and Controllers would have been a more accurate name.”

The Washington Tax and Spenders.
I used to be a big Redskins fan back in the Seventies, and I always thought the clowning around between that guy and the Dallas Cowboy guy (another black guy who wore white and fringed blue cowboy gear) was entertaining and funny.
Ditto
People...People!
The post is about pushing the left’s buttons not the mascot. Fine, bring it up but his quote was designed to confuse our enemies and he’s doing it while they’re lost turning them into headless chickens. It’s hilarious.
The fish he’s frying has to do with culture not money.
Frying fish(bigger/other) doesn’t matter. I just like the term.
I love Trump, he lives by the motto:
Always be trolling.
I would have kept “Washington Football Team” and run with it- like the no-frills products some supermarkets used to sell- you’d see an all-white or yellow can marked “Beans.”
The Orange Men. Lefties would be begging to change it to Redskins.
