Obscure to all except those well-versed in Yuuzhan Vong lore.
They’ve had about 6 years to work out a new name since people started calling for them to change it so if they’ve been caught flat footed then they’re more stupid than anyone even thought.

Damn it, this always happens. I think I'm gonna score, and then I never score. It's not fair.

Yeah I was just gonna say effectively this. Knowing Snyder it wouldn't surprise me if they got renamed the Washington Subways and the logo was a footlong.

Same. I could easily see Snyder trying to recoup any losses by selling the naming rights to the team, giving us the Washington Nike’s or Washington Apple iPhone 12 Super Pro Max XL’s, and I have no idea how the league would react...

Yeah, but having people work on new names and logos and all that would have required Snyder to spend money. This is the team that sold expired peanuts from bankrupt airlines and beer left over from the World Cup, so no act by Snyder would be surprisingly stupid.

I figure the new name will be at least a lil passive aggressive.

My guess is that Snyder rides out this rough patch and the name remains unchanged.

But if ever there's a moment where Snyder's hand is forced, it would look a lot like this.

Snyder trademarked Washington Warriors shortly after buying the team. IIRC the speculation was that it was for a new AFL team or that he was blocking a future XFL team (lol) from being named too similarly, but maybe it was a contingency plan for a rename. He let it expire a few years ago, so it doesn’t matter.

It's been longer than that, I remember the protests outside the Metrodome for their Super Bowl win in 92.

Conversely, they nail that sweet FedEx sponsorship money and change to the Washington Couriers. Their new logo is a delivery man running with a football-shaped package under his arm.
