I think they should just put a question mark after their current team name. 

Switch to green and black uniforms, and have Jim Carrey and John Astin as honourary captains.  A moment of silence in memory of Frank Gorshin.

Washington Roughriders? At one point 2 of 9 CFL teams were Roughriders.

It is Saskatchewan who are the Roughriders.  Ottawa was the Rough Riders.  Not even close to the same name🤣

I actually really like it as is.

 

Clean and simple, even got to keep the classic looking uniforms,  sans helmet logo.

 

I’d put the “W” they’re using on one side of the helmet and the player number on the other.

Isn't one of them now the Red Blacks? That's like double offensive.

I would keep it. It’s simple and classic. The only people that would be upset are the ones who were upset with the original name and wanted a change to something they wanted.

I have a very close friend who is native. I asked him about this particular situation. While he didn’t have a problem with it, most on his reservation do...therefore he is behind the name change. 
 

I for one always viewed it as an honor to how hard native people fought...but I’m of Irish decent thus very white. Thankfully, I was raised with an open mind. 
 

I like WFT (or, for comedic value, as previously mentioned, WTF). At any rate, whatever Snyder chooses, I hope it is with serious thought and consideration.

Washington Warthogs as in the A10 Warthog. Silver Sharktooth helmet with the Olive drab would look good. Appropriate name, not offensive to anyone, perfect for a team based in the military capital of the world.

Can they even use the name "Washington" anymore? I heard he owned slaves.

 

They should drop that too and just be called the "Football Team".

 

Also, red is a pretty aggressive color. Reminds me of blood. They should go for a less intrusive, safer color like gray.
