Viperion101 Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 My take for the Washington Not-The-(Washington Football Team). I decided to call the team the Sentinels. A Sentinel is a soldier who keeps guard over a particular thing. The name works well for a football team (although maybe not if they have a bad Defense or an Offensive Line), and it gives the impression of a fortress or a defensive stronghold, such that should be implied by the capital of a country as prominent and powerful as the United States. Logo (features a letter "W" with the dome of the US Capitol Building superimposed on it) Uniforms (keeps the same general design as the old (Washington Football Team) uniforms, but adds a chevron on the sleeve to look like military insignia) C&C Welcome and Appreciated.

Viperion101 Posted August 9, 2020 Author Share Posted August 9, 2020 Also, the main logo (The "W" with the Capitol Building) could work for pretty much any other name for the team that has been proposed, except maybe the Redtails or the Redwolves.

Viperion101 Posted August 10, 2020 Author Share Posted August 10, 2020 Complete Rebrand Option If the team is going to drop the Red-skeins (had to say it like this because there's a filter on the website, just saying the old name) moniker and thus the Native American identity completely, then I would say that the best option would be to "commit to it" and go with a full rebrand. I decided on maroon, white, and gray for the colors. First off, they fit with the identity of the rest of the sports teams in the DC area (I decided to go against using red, white, and blue; it would look too similar to the New York Giants' logo, the Washington team's historical arch-rival). Second, they maintain the same maroon color as the old team, to show some continuity with the past. Third, they still match the general theme of white-and-gray, monumental, imposing buildings that are common in Washington DC.

Viperion101 Posted August 15, 2020 Author Share Posted August 15, 2020 Yeah I guess it does look a little bit like that. Either concept could work, and I do agree that the "new" concept with the gray looks a little bit like a lot of college teams (A&M, and Missouri State come to mind for me).
