Game: Give the 'Skins a new name.

If you had to pick a new name for the Redskins, what would it be. (Sorry, it's the off season)
My picks:
1. Washington Woodchucks
2. Washington Wombats
3. Washington Wiggers (Seriously, have you BEEN to a game lately?!!)
*******
Note: This has NOTHING to do with the typical 'Redskin' name controversy that seems to get legs every couple of years. I just thought it might be a fun exercise.

I would not care what they would call them. They'd still be the Washington Redskins in my book.

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't they consider changing the name a few years ago because the Native Americans were complaining about the name. What about this "Washington Politicians"

The Washington Pandas. (the zoo seems quite proud of them).
The Washinton DTM's (Dont Tread on Me). The Snake from Metallica's Black album could be our logo!

Washington Philly-busters
Washington Freedom (is this already used somewhere?)
Washington Americans (this way we keep the logo, continue to celebrate this countries heritage and thumb our noses at the PC police!)

Good evening. First post and
I like the Americans name.
Warriors, Hogs, and Razorbacks
(yes, I was raised in Arkansas)
are also good names.
I like the logo. Reminds me of
my late granpa.

I wouldn't pick a new name because it won't happen. It will always be the Redskins

How about the "Washington Pigskins".
This has elements of the Hogs, football, and pork-barrel spending.
Any thoughts?

How about no name change, but add a disclaimer!
The Washington (with the utmost respect to Native Americans) Redskins.
By the way, I have a problem with the term Native American. I was born here my parrents, their parrents, and their parrents were all born here too. So doesn't that make me more of a Native American, than an Irish American? When you get right down to it, no ethnic group is "native" to North America the only difference is time and mode of transportation. So if your ancesters walked here instead of taking a boat does that make you Native American!

How 'bout the Washington Jap Plays....no disrepect to any orientals.
Seriously, stop with the name change stuff. This isn't going to happen and by continuing the conversation you feed into the liberal media/academia hype....
