Make it an O name, so their initials are TWO for their average wins per season.
The Washington Oligarchs
The Washington Offenders
The Washington Offended about people who are always offended so much so that you whine and complain more than the people who are always offended and frankly I'm just totally over all of it
Honestly, they are never getting a better name than Washington Football Team. That's the kind of badass, wear it on your sleeve type team name that will just be appreciated more over time. They should keep it.
As Chris Rock once said, "Sure, we've all seen a Native American somewhere, but when was the last time you saw TWO?"
My opinion isn't important. Sure, my grandfather was born on the Choctaw reservation and there's plenty of Cherokee on both sides of my family. Hell, I live on Cherokee street. An official "trail of tears" marker is just a couple blocks away and fwiw (nothing) my daughter's name is Cheyenne and my favorite film score is from "Last of the Mohicans". My point? I don't have one. I'm not native American. I'm a European mutt living in the Americas and the name redskins doesn't offend me in the least - but am I able to see how it could be different for others? Uh, yeah.
