Draconator Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Wouldn't the front office check on something like this before changing the name? Oh, that's right. It's a Dan Snyder run team. 1 1 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Who Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 3 minutes ago, Aussie Joe said: Might happen I'm one of those who does not think the name is derogatory. It was a classic logo. No one names a team after a group that is not embraced as valuable. Why do that? But if it is too volatile an issue, going back to Washington Football Team isn't a bad fall back. I started to like it once I got used to it. 5 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I work at USPTO and knew this was coming. Quote The reason for the denial was: (1) the existence of a trademark for “Commanders’ Classic”; and (2) pending applications filed by a man in the D.C. area. Two? I wonder who else did it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingBoots8 Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 My high school alma mater is one of the NYS schools that needs to change their mascot to keep state funding this fall. If the national outrage is anything like the local outrage they need to just pick a name immediately and move forward. I’ve never seen a bunch of boomers who haven’t lived in the area for 30+ years get so bent out of shape about a school changing from “Indians” to something else. We get it, your glory days have long since faded. It’s gonna be ok. TBH they can’t do much worse than the commies 2 3 3 2 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gugny Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 I TOTALLY embraced “Washington Football Team” and their stripped down uniforms. I thought it was brilliant and wish they’d stayed the course. 3 11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
