4_tattoos Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 After having a day to think about it, my fingers are officially crossed for Red Hogs. All of the finalist names are bad for different reasons. Pig/hog imagery has been the only part of the team's identity that's not Native American related. I'd go as far as saying pigs/hogs to Washington fans are equal to the dog imagery of the Browns. It's not the team's name, but still part of the team's identity. Plus, I'm intrigued by logo possibilities. Just a few that have been floating around online for a while now. 10 Quote Hotter Than July > Thriller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont care Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 1 hour ago, DCarp1231 said: To be fair, in the video the first helmet pulled out seemed to have a black facemask. Whether or not that was the case or just shadows playing tricks is yet to be seen. There’s even an all black helmet shown. It’s not like the facemasks on a helmet are exclusive to that one specific helmet. Also, they push the “burgundy & gold” angle pretty hard so why would they remove any trace of gold from one of the uniforms? EDIT: While the presumed home burgundy jersey takes clear inspiration from the recently used throwbacks, the presumed away white jersey could just be an updated modern version of their 1961-68 uniforms Keep grasping at straws. With enough “predictions” one is bound to be right 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, there is a good chance that the main reaction to the unveiling will be WTF, might as well head them off at the pass, so to speak. Having people in Washington DC wearing gear that says WTF. <Insert joke here> 1 Quote Last updated 2/26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chakfu Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Sentinels would be weird - practically same as Guardians. I find it hard to imagine anything but the tried and true switch to Red______s. I liked Redtails because of the history but supposedly it's not a finalist? "Tails" as a shortened form is awful. Is Red Hawks really an option if trademarks eliminated Wolves? Hawks can also informally go with Hogs...I think it might be the best choice, Miami OH notwithstanding 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make that the big five, and it's a no contest in worst team name as far as I'm concerned.

It’s actually baffling how we ended up in a situation with SO MANY bad options, how does the capital of the US not inspire at least two or three somewhat generally well-liked nicknames? 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
