I think it’s been said they may stay with Football Team through next season as well before getting another name.

Yeah this is everything that I've read. Speculation is that Danny Boy has a name he likes, but the copyright is owned by the squatter who broke in the news over the summer and they can't come to an agreement. No idea if that is accurate, but christ I want it to be.

Yeah, there were a few stories about that, but all the details are vague. Like, one had some local real estate guy registered a fuckton of trademarks (Some of which Snyder may have had in the past but lapsed?) and it was one of those that they wanted? There was also a rumor that they had a name but Nike wanted them to wait, and with possible COVID issues impacting next season as well (Namely fans at games) they want to wait till things are normal...

Honestly, I think the biggest delay on it is Washington Football Team, while everybody laughed at first, has worked well as a placeholder and proven to not be a full on joke. Hell, it seems to be reasonably well liked. So, they’ll let that ride for longer than planned before the actual new name comes out (At which point they can sell even more new merchandise with the new name/logo).

I gotta disagree on the well-liked point. All my friends who are fans are either ambivalent on the name or really dislike it. I can't think of a single fan I know who is excited at the prospect of keeping the name other than for the oddity and lols of the whole situation.

I would actually respect Dan if he made the name just to spite that guy, like the Wahington gently caress You Greg's.

I grew up in the VA suburbs of DC and still live in the general area(Baltimore). Most all my childhood friends are fans, and a fair number of people I know from college and adulthood are as well. I've probably talked to 30-40 people about it. The only people who support it(myself included, though I'm not much of a WFT fan these days) do so ironically or for the lolls.

Hardly an exciting development here. Looks like Snyder is fond of bland.


Team sources tell us owner Daniel Snyder is strongly considering sticking with the Washington Football Team -- for good reasons that we'll get into in a moment -- but we're also told the Washington Football Club is also in the running.

Washington Football Team or Washington Football Club? WFT or WFC?

Let's break it down. WFT has a lot going for it ... head coach Ron Rivera has the team playing well lately. Yeah, they're only 6-8, but that's good enough to top the NFC East and, as of now, they're in the playoffs. Winning cures all.

As for WFC ... we're told some folks in the organization like the tip of the hat to Premier League powerhouses Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal ... all of which use the FC handle.

Now, we're told it's not a lock Snyder goes with either WFC or WFT ... but he is keen on both. The team hasn't picked a deadline to make a final choice, but it's reportedly eyeing the 2022 season to debut the new permanent handle.

I actually really don't like the idea of sticking with Washington Football Team or something similar. I can't shake the feeling that it's an underhanded way for Snyder to throw a bone to fans who just want to keep calling them the Redskins, likely because he probably feels the same way.
