FWIW, the CFL has a team called the 'Edmonton Eskimos' however they are seeking a less 'rayciss' name. They have a list of replacement names, all beginning with the letter 'E', so they can to retain their logo:
Personally, IF they are going to change the name, instead of 'Edmonton Eskimos', they should call themselves the 'Edmonton EMASCULATED'. Truth in advertising, and all that!

Well hell, we can’t have that can we? I propose we denigrate everything about DC. Population, cats, dogs, and institutions. As a former resident of N.W. Albermarle St. DC, I’m eminently qualified to do so. And, as a lifelong fan of the Washington Foreskins I hereby propose that we keep the co-ed dancers and the cheerleaders and dump the football team. Its the only solution. I swear my loyalty to the old Redskins. Long live Sonny Jurgenson, Billy Kilmer, Charley Taylor, Larry Brown, Manny Sistrunk, George Allen! OOH RAH!

Go for the all tranny, all lesbo variety teams. Could even do mini Pride parades during halftime performances.

New name looks to me like a placeholder caused by people with no imagination. They had a while to come up with a knew name but haven’t yet.
Will they call the new squad “The Kneelers?”

I smell some ageism in that woke marxist statement.
They HAVE to put Richard Simmons front and center of that woke squad

You are right the new name is a placeholder.
Now if you'll excuse me for a minute... I need to rant...
It was a panicked, gutless move during last summer's craziness. Snyder (the owner) had always been 100% behind and totally unapologetic about the team name. He was on record saying he would never change it. A poll a few years ago showing a large majority of Native Americans did not have a problem with the name seemed to have settled the issue. There was no plan to have a name in waiting just in case. Then all of a sudden it was a perfect storm, that some would say was organized, to try and make Snyder sell the team. Minority owners wanted out, FedEx wanting to drop the naming rights to the Stadium, Nike dropping the merchandise, the NFL backing away, stories that Snyder was involved in a sexual harassment settlement and may have been an accomplice of Epstein. Dropping the name was the pressure release and bought Snyder time.
The Redskins/WFT "brand" is worth north of $3 billion dollars. The clowns that said "Just rename it... you'll sell a ton more merchandise..." are clueless. That brand had been built over the course of 80+ years. If it was profitable to change names, NFL teams would do it all the time. The plan is to go this year as WFT again. It keeps the color scheme and a connection for the dwindling number of Skins fans who are still engaged. My thought is that besides all names being problematic at this point (seriously... everything is "offensive") this helps Snyder if he has to sell the team sooner rather than later. This way, the new owner has complete control and it will make the sale easier. Lots of rumors that Bezos wants the team.
Full disclosure - I was a lifetime, passionate, Skins fan. After the events of last summer, I completely walked away from the NFL. When my beloved Skins ceased to be, I just couldn't care less. I really felt like the scales had fallen from my eyes. Why was I giving time and money and passion to a group of people who hate what I believe, hate my country, and many of whom are truly awful, just because they run fast and wear the same clothes as other people I used to like? I had missed exactly one game in 46 years and this year, I did not watch a single play. Didn't watch any other pro football either. Not even the Super Bowl. I was stunned at how easy it was to stop caring and do productive things with that time.
Not sorry I used to be a fan, but happy I am not one now.
