Sad news- Name is staying.

The Redskins sucked for an entire generation. An entire generation grew up being mocked for being a fan of this team. "Deadskins" etc.

Now you have a new generation that sees the COMMANDERS as winners. The COMMANDERS have Jayden Daniels. The COMMANDERS went to an NFC Title game. etc.

Its a new era now. Embrace it or get out. That's the message Josh Harris is delivering.

Exactly. I disliked the name as well but it's more and more less associated with Daniel Snyder and more associated with Jayden Daniels and winning. You have to be pretty old (and I am) to associate Redskins with anything we can be proud of.

PS This board is screwed up. Every time I make an edit to a post it adds quotes and screws up the formatting.

Could you kind of explain what you are noticing and I will work on getting it fixed? I notice to me that the edit and quote buttons are close and you can quote your own post so I end up pressing the quote instead of edit; are you sure you aren’t doing the same thing?

It makes sense. Another name change would just be exhausting, and coming off a 12 win season and NFC Title game appearance has allowed fans to rally around the Commander name.

There will be a jersey and logo rebrand though, which is great news. I can live with the Commie name but the current logo is boring af and the jerseys suck (red isn't bad but white is bad and black is trash).

You had me until you blasphemied the black jerseys...

I'm on the wrong side of 60 and love the Redskins name and hate that they bent over and changed the name. I still feel uncomfortable calling them the "Commanders" in conversations. It just doesn't feel right.

That said....I get it.....the team has sucked under the Redskins moniker for years, (indeed a lifetime for younger fans), and they need to appeal to the younger generation who will be watching games, buying gear and helping sustain fandom..

Let me use this post as a test.

Looks like it worked this time. Looks like the edit button is 2 away from the quote button, not sure I was making that mistake consistantly but there's always a chance. Thanks.
