We Are Now Officially The Washington Commanders

 

And it's official. Our beloved Washington Football Team formerly known as the Redskins is now officially the Commanders.

 

 

 

2 years in the making and now finally this saga is complete. What a relief. I have exhausted every word to say about the name change over the last 9 years. I've approached it from every angle, including a South Park episode about it. 

Now that it's officially official I basically want to reiterate what I wrote last night-

 

Just a reminder- The new name doesn't erase the memories of the old one. But it was time for a new name and Commanders is cool. Snyder is still the worst human to ever live. Both can be true. Both are true. 

At the end of the day, team names are like, 0% of why people root for teams. If they can build a winner in Washington nobody will fucking care what they are called. If we start 4-0, people will be hailing to the Commanders until the cows come home. The issue is nobody has any faith this team will ever win, so they hold onto the old name because of the old times. We just need a winning team SO BADLY. 

 

That's the best way I can summarize my thoughts on all of this. So yeah, let's go Commanders? Hail to the Commies? Fuck Dan Snyder Forever? All work.
