Hard to find an option here that isn't "racist." Presidents or generals...nope...we've had white supremacists who held each title. Lincoln opposed the prospect of racial equality in his debate against Douglas. Americans...Trump is one! Kings...King George owned slaves. Memorials? We have memorials of slave owners. Capitols? Ok that just sounds too much like the hockey team. Veterans, Jefersons nope for reasons listed above. Roosevelts? Teddy is no good for the PC group. Monuments... take them down! ....
 
Don't like any of those options.

I'm telling ya, they should scrap both Washington and Redskins and just go by The District. It fits on play by play: "first and ten at the District 45", "the score at halftime, the District 13, the Eagles 7.". It would be trendy the way Golden State has their The City logo. They don't need to change their color schedule. And if D.C. becomes a state the name would slide right in with those state/region teams like Tennessee and Carolina.

Goodness Gandolf, just tell us already about your favorite movies. You're clearly dying to :D
 
Since Washington is changing their name, what are the odds on the next team they will go after?

I'm sure they'll find a way for cowboys to be offensive. Maybe even the Raiders.

Social media detectives gonna know the whole history about both in a week.

Chiefs definitely done.

The same people advocating for the Redskins name change could easily turn their sights on the Cowboys, they hand a hand in killing off the Native American population.

Also, the 49ers are a solid contender to be next for the same exact reason.
 
True but it makes sense.

A Red Wolf is an actual subspecies, (Canis rufus), that was once common throughout the eastern and south central states, so you've the local thing working. Wolves and Native Americans have a common thread of nearly being exterminated, and wolves were held in high regard in their cultures, so it's not that much of a stretch to change from a mascot point of view.

Plus, you can keep the same team colors.

You said subspecies. That can’t be politically correct.

Need another choice
 
I wish they had the nuts to go way out there.
Name them the Peacocks.

If you're triggered by the name of a sports franchise, you have other problems.
