I'll be sure to put an asterisk on every post, just in case people forget that there's a pandemic... and Florida. Let's face it even if the NFL kicks off, they won't finish. It will be a miracle if they finish. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
8BW14 1,306 Posted July 23 I like the sound of “Washington American Football Club” better, but what’re you gonna do on such short notice? Design-wise, I don’t like the font they chose to use. I think a serif varsity block font would be more appropriate. Also, assuming the mockup is reasonably accurate, I’m surprised they aren’t keeping the stripes on the helmet. That’s a pretty iconic part the uniforms. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It doesn't need to be appended to every godsdamned post. *though I've done it myself... but I'll stop too. Maybe. 10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure there is another Scandinavian creature that has no cultural significance to the area that Washington can lay claim. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DNAsports 4,465 Posted July 23 I don’t understand the hate coming after this decision... it takes 18+ months for other teams to pump out a new identity yet you seemingly pressure Washington to do it in less than 100 days? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BBTV 18,216 Posted July 23 Oh man - just realized their initials are now WFT, setting them up for all kinds of WTF jokes and even fake WTF merch. All they needed to do was replace Team with Club. WTF, WFT! 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maroon 530 Posted July 23 TBH this could just be the permanent name. Could be the first NFL team with Eurofootball naming conventions. Could call them Washington FT. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GDAWG 1,641 Posted July 23 I'm just going to call the team "Washington Football Team Name TBD" which I got from Pat McAfee. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

officeglenn 2,200 Posted July 23 Team's Twitter handle has been changed to @WashingtonNFL and wordmarks have been photoshopped out in old photos. Team has also retweeted a few photoshops of players in new uniforms: 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No one knows how anything will turn out. Best you can do, is give it a shot like MLS,MLB, NBA, and Nascar are doing. It's working to a degree. 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the NBA will because of the contained bubble. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McCall 1,208 Posted July 23 Why did they remove the helmet stripes? All they had to do with the helmets was trade out the logo for the numbers. 18 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Magic Dynasty 2,124 Posted July 23 I don't like that the numbers are gold instead of white with a gold outline to match the jerseys. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EddieJ1984 1,557 Posted July 23 Ugh of course they go with a generic stock football font. And I would've preferred no name above the font numbers. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
