RIPPA 34,093 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 NFL is shortening the pre-season to 2 games. They have eliminated Week 1 and Week 4 So the league is changing the schedule to make sure every team plays one road game and one home game The two week games will happen are Aug 20-24 and Aug 27-31 Link to post Share on other sites

My marker is on him announcing on the 4th that he's changing the name to The Washington Americans or something equally cheesy. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

RIPPA 34,093 Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Yeah Snyder is incredibly stubborn, doesn’t like to be told what to do (as are most rich folks) and has carried on about what “special meaning the team name has” At max - it will be “we will change the name.... after the season” and use that as a stall tactic Either way - as long as I can stop seeing the fucking potato memes 2 Link to post Share on other sites

"In light of recent events around our country and feedback from our community, the Washington Redskins are announcing the team will undergo a thorough review of the team's name. This review formalizes the initial discussions the team has been having with the league in recent weeks. "... We believe this review can and will be conducted with the best interest of all in mind." 1 Link to post Share on other sites
RIPPA 34,093 Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 The statement from the team does give credence to the idea that Red Tails will most likely be the name change. Otherwise just do the Generals to piss everyone off 1 Link to post Share on other sites
hammerva 5,025 Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 I mean seriously it is obvious what the new name should. The last good football team in maybe the entire DMV Washington Defenders 1 Link to post Share on other sites

RIPPA 34,093 Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 I totally forgot that Dan Snyder trademarked the name Warriors years ago If Vegas puts that on the board, that is where you should place your money Link to post Share on other sites
Kuetsar 1,854 Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 The Chiefs should be next. . . . I know the Twins probably own the copyright, but a football Washington Senators would also be totally inline with the Slurs recent records . . Link to post Share on other sites
