They need an actual logo. Using the W seems pretty lazy. IMO

[@patriotclips5648]

It is lazy, they're lazy, this franchise is a joke.

[@aval8548]

it just represents what we wish we could have, a W 😔👊

[@presseagainidareyou4704]

Exactly, renaming teams would be way less egregious if they actually put effort into them

[@Nchinnam]

They went from the red skins to the people who beat the red skins lmao

[@e_4325]

Oh the irony 🤣

[@00_Skins]

Yeah it’s fucked up

[@cozmic0]

They went from being named after the oppressed people to the oppressors lol

[@e_4325]

Irony 😂

[@28lando.]

should've gone with something along the lines of "washington warriors" imo team names w/ alliteration always sound the best to me (ex: washington wizards)

[@kimyona9746]

I heard it was gonna be the warthogs but they chose commanders for whatever reason

[@ThePhl4ever]

Looks like the Waste Management "W". That and the Nationals using the Walgreen's logo, Washington sports teams need to get better logos.

[@JustinLearnsThings]

Lol it does! Waste management football team lol 😂 but if it pulled crowds like the waste management open, I doubt they’d be complaining!! 🤣

@@JustinLearnsThings hopefully they don't wind up like the **presidents** dog did. .....

[@wereallyrollin6680]

I think the logo a W 🤣🤣🤣

Hey, how can I get in contact with you? I’d like to talk about advertising.

[@JustinLearnsThings]

I believe I have an email under the about tab on my channel page that you can use for business inquiries! Thank you!

[@elijahbegay4716]

I would’ve voted for the Washington Tomahawks or Wolves

[@JustinLearnsThings]

Thanks for watching!

[@bige4567]

I call them the Commies

[@whippin1335]

Name stinks. Haven’t seen a single person say they like it lol

[@borisgoykhman5547]

Should've gone with the Washington Presidents tbh

[@JustinLearnsThings]

Yeah I heard a few that I liked... Red Tails was another I heard thrown around for the tuskegee airmen which I thought could be a nice one!

[@thebandit0256]

Be Honest the Warriors would been a way better name to be honest for the people who defended the City of Washington before it fell to the English in War of 1812

[@e_4325]

Or Washington native's

[@TheRealOtakuako]

They should have just used Washington Generals like General George Washington.

[@JustinLearnsThings]

That would have been a good name for sure!

[@dobe46]

Be honest, how many dislikes does this video have because of a specific commander…

[@Inkadu4You]

Washington Commandos would have been cooler

[@Boredoutofmywits]

Maccabi Wasinghton would ne a very fitting name.

[@alexf__]

I feel like the only thing that was offensive about the redskins was just name I wish they kept the old logo or at least made a new one with the Native American still being a part of it

[@aidanjones2318]

The name absolutely sucks. They destroyed this franchise.

[@00_Skins]

Horrible, football team was better

[@JustinLearnsThings]

I thought WFT was a pretty rad name!

[@00_Skins]

@@JustinLearnsThings agreed 👍❤🏹

[@RainbowWolf2023]

I hate the Name Redskins sounded Better

[@Justin-Hill-1987]

It was racist.

They shoulda gone with Warthogs

@@RainbowWolf2023 I’ve heard many Native Americans don’t want to be considered as anyone’s mascot.

[@ThatLad685]

The Washington commies for short, even sporting the colors of the Soviet Union lmao, how ironic

[@RepOfAntarctica]

Not even close. They're using a shade of burgundy that is a 90-20-20 in RGB, whereas the USSR used a generic 204-0-0 red; they're vastly different colors.
