Yeah, that name isn't changing. If anything, they will double down. Just look at that statement.

Finally, one less reason to hate the Washington team. Though there's still thousands of other reasons.

I agree they’re finally going to change the name, but I don’t think this review panel, by itself, is the smoking gun Schefter claims. It doesn’t sound too different from past lip service where the org will say something like “After careful consideration we’ve decided people love our name and we’re keeping it!” I’m sure he’s basing it on firmer info he can’t report on though.

https://twitter.com/RapSheet/status/1279076667198242818 I think it's almost certain they'll change it. If they weren't going to do it, they would have just kept their heads down and not engaged and it'll be out of the news for another couple of years after the President gets his head stuck a bucket for a couple of hours, and they could have smoothed things over with their sponsors quietly. If they turn back now they're going to get hosed.

Hell, it wouldn’t be the first time Native American symbolism was supplanted by military-backed “progressivism”. I get this feeling as well. I have zero investment in what they pick in terms of the team, but as far as ideas that appeal to me, I'd use the opportunity to go with something different than most other teams. Meaning, not just "noun + s"; Washington Battalion, Washington Armory, Washington Legion. Phalanx was the first one I thought of, but probably not as good.

"This process allows the team to take into account not only the proud tradition and history of the franchise but also input from our alumni, the organization, sponsors, the National Football League and the local community it is proud to represent on and off the field." Strange that they're not taking into account any Indigenous leadership. Oh, right.
