Rumors flew after the Redskins announced they were conducting a thorough review of their name, that the team could perhaps come up with a new name before the start of the 2020 season. Now, a new report suggests that the name change could come very soon indeed.
According to Ben Fischer of Sports Business Daily, sources within the organization say that the team intends to select a new nickname as soon as possible.
As Fischer writes, a person bidding for a minority share of the team has received personal assurances that the name will be changed. Fischer also cites a key business partner who says that discussions within the organization have been decisive. Even going so far as to say that Owner Daniel Snyder, who once said that he would never change the name, has changed his mind and is throwing himself into the process of changing the name.
It was learned on Friday, that FedEx, the title sponsor of the Redskins stadium, has said they will pull their name from the stadium unless the team changes the name by the end of the year.

Potato Names Matter
I just knew that one was coming!
Eagles fans must be ecstatic at the discomfiture of the Redskins, but they should watch their own back...the environmentalists are coming after them next!
It won’t be long until the ethnic cleansing is complete.
“Out of sight, out of mind.” White liberal guilt will be purged and they can go about drinking their white wine and spouting their champagne Marxism with a clear conscience.
NFL? What is that? Oh - the place where some other “anthem” will be played along with the real national anthem? Could not care any less any more about this “sport.”
Hope they enjoy a rapid dropoff in fan interest and that it costs them billions for their idiocy.
Exactly. They are spoiled, rotten children.
Oh, so that's why the need for the big name change... Get a new sponsor or open it up to funding the stadium by the fans. Can they do that?
Also still like the idea of changing the Redskins logo to a potato better than changing the name.
Washington Pu$$ies.

How uplifting. Interestingly enough, some colleges, such as Marquette University, dropped the name Warriors about 40 years ago because it was considered racist against Native-Americans.
How the world turns...
Ok. Mea Culpa, what does the change solve? Will there be peace with black Marxists tomorrow if the Redskins become the Maize Shuckers? Enough with the nonsense already.
I actually hare it is going to be the Washington Wascally Wabbits
