Hearing/reading blurbs about the NFL season possibly not happening. It's been a clusterf*** for sports. I really won't miss it if the season is scrapped. Covid is out of control.

I bet Tampa Bay signs Antonio Brown.
16-0? Analytics and oddsmakers say Ravens on path to perfection.
Even with their schedule and less traveling without adequate training and pre season no team is going 16-0.

Wow, just Wow.
I don't think they are going to get the season in. With all that is going on, I'm not too interested in watching games anyway. I hope all the sports leagues can safely play but, especially with football and the close contact, I don't see it happening. I hope I'm wrong.
What do you guys think the new Washington team name should be?
Eeek. It goes from bad to worse for the Skins.
The Washington....
Cellars
Lobbyists
Swamp
Misogynists
Monuments (think of the fun rioters could have with this one)
Eunuchs
In all seriousness, (as an Eagles fan, I HATE Danny Snyder and the Snyder-era Skins and I hope he NEVER sells the team... everyone in the NFC East wants Danny Snyder as Washington's owner for life) but the two choices I think they should go with are the Washington Warthogs or the Washington Redtails.
It must have been Ravens day yesterday on the NFL channel. They ran both seasons of their super bowls and showed both super bowl games. Kerry Collins sure did suck for the Giants, he threw four interceptions and if the Ravens defense could catch the ball better they would of had seven or eight interceptions. In the Ravens/S.F. game if they didn't turn out the lights that would have been the biggest one sided blowout in super bowl history.
I think its bullshit that they need to change their name.
I do like Redtails that is being bandied about. Red Wolves seems to be another that has gained traction, at least with parts of the fanbase. Not as thrilled with that one, but I think I can learn to live with it. Hogs is another good one, if only because of the connection to the name already.
I wouldn't mind something completely out of left field (like the Interstellar Core Fragments or Infinite Recursions or something like that). As long as its not Warriors or Monuments (or god help us Wildcats) I think I'll be able to live with it.
I don't like Redtails. I get them honoring the Redtails but if I was a fan I'd hate that nickname.
What the hell is a redtail? It sounds like a pussy team.
^ But what is it? A deer species? Rabbit? Bird? It sounds lame, regardless of the historical connection.
I don't think the word Redskins made opponents tremble in their boots.
I think Warriors would be a good name, and they can use the throwback logo with the arrow on the helmet. Seriously, it would look good and still be familiar.
The Washington Redskins have been a joke for a long time now but I remember their legacy from the 70s and 80s. They were the Cream of that division for a decade at least. They had the first black QB to win a SB.
