Washington Warriors, and leave the logo alone!

This is pretty much how I feel. Just make it the Warriors and call it a day. Can still keep the logo and honor Native Americans at the same time and not have to change anything really. The only other cool suggestion I saw was the Redtails, but I personally would prefer to keep the Native American motif.

The Onion recently ran a story that the Washington Redskins were changing their name....to the DC Redskins.?

It's actually old. They run this every year when this topic comes up.

What are some alternative options?

Reds?
Indians?
Hammerheads?
Pilmgrins?

I think they should go off the wall with something creative. Ant ideas?

The Washington Pale Faces. Put Washington crossing the delaware as the logo.

Washington Warriors and keep the logo
Didn't marquette change their name from the warriors to golden eagles because it was insensitive to native americans? Not sure how your proposed change would work.

Only beta’s would pander to this level of sensitivity.

Well, it looks like it's happening one way or another. All the weird snowflake "Bears fans" that are, for some reason, concerned about another teams racist name should go buy all the Washington merch they can.

The Patriots is worse than the Redskins. Privileged white male, black slave owner, raped native americans and forced them away from their lands, sexist against women. Tear the Brady statues down!!

Why not an actual tribe local to the area? Instead of vaguely representing Native Americans, why not an individual?

Wicomico
Matapony
Accokeek
Potomac
Piscataway
Nentego


There are many.

Warriors are cool though.

Or maybe Washington Unrepresenteds?
Or no area name? maybe FedEx Airmen? FedEx Package Pushers? FedEx Freighters?
Late Deliveries.

I've never met a Native American offended by this name, and I've met many, but for fucks sake just change it already. Tired of this bullshit. Nike can go back to making the new uniform with sweat shop labor as they BTFO racism.

Redskins and Indians are racist as hell.

Blackhawks etc aren’t overtly racist. I don’t think anyone is demanding they be changed. If the people are fine with it than let it ride.
