Commando - Wikipedia

Commandos would be better and more appropriate as the coach and other employees call a lot of the plays along with the quarterback. You do not have a lot of leaders on a football field at game time. Maybe off the field but it would be chaos if a lot of NFL players were managing the plays at the same time.

Just plain "Washington" was better.

I'm waiting for the objection to the "Master's Tournament". Perhaps, like the Redskins, they could go for "The Augusta Golf Tournament". Then later change it to "The Augusta Azaleas" :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

Commanders is biased against enlisted military members. Should have named them, the "Washington Swamp Things."

Should have just dropped the 'Redskins' part of the name.
Commanders is degrading to the commanded.
CLM. (Commanded lives matter!):icon_wink:

Talk to an American Indian, vast majority have no problem with Redskin in the name.

Ridiculous changing all of these names.

Already the Dan Snyder haters have begun calling the team "The Commies."

Next in line will be the "Chiefs" for the Woke brains.

Not without the Cleveland Indians to balance it:1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

Then, the Atlanta Braves should be changed by the Washington cowards:1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

Not fair to call them the chiefs discriminates against the lowly Indian Braves

Nah. The Alligators would complain. It's pretty humiliating even for an alligator (or turtle, or mosquito, or whateverthehellitis that is being referred to), to be called a "thing".

There'd be riots and everything!

Should have kept the name and changed the mascot.

Exactly! Of course, that would be discriminating against the White Potatoes or the Sweet Potatoes. Although, they could have left the "skins" part and just added "Fore" on the front.............:1rotfl:
