Gee I sure hope the people of the future don't look poorly upon us simple 21st century folk for appropriating animal names. (assuming they go with Red Wolves etc)

Red Wolves is the stupid s**t I've ever heard, I agree with you there.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Carolina Black Panthers.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

The Jacksonville Dotted Jaguars.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Let's be a bit more specific about team names just like Washington please.

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

Red Wolves see an actual thing so I dont think it's that bad

Would best best to try and maintain the current uniform as much as possible

Animal names work better when they are vague.

Imagine the Atlanta Kestrel Falcons

You can still create a logo for a wolf around the same colours. It's no massive deal.

Washington Wolves possibly sounds worse than Warriors

The Washington Tribe would have been my choice after seeing some of the names the squatter bloke came up with.

He had quite a few good ones in there to be fair, even some of the historic names and parliamentary names were good.

Really like those designs, uni especially looks cool, love the helmet. Might be a bit too far out there for the likes of Syder though as it would probably be a winner!

So tryhard imo, over the top appeasing of the black community.

That looks ******* awesome. Just call them the wolves and we are set.

What does he mean by 180

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

The fact they want to call them the redwolves when their colour is clearly maroon would get on my nerves in a hurry.

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

I actually think Americans would be good. Keep everything just change the name

Ameiricas team to sue them.

I don't hate the name, but I do agree that it does come across as pandering (in part to the Black community, but probably even more to the outrage brigade), especially when you find out that the Redtails were based in Alabama and therefore have basically zero connection to Washington.

If the Redtails were based in the DMV area (Delaware, Maryland, Viriginia - the 3 states that surround Washington DC) then it would have a lot more validity in my eyes.

It's a massive cringe, reminds me of the time when Cam got in trouble for his sexiest comments and the next week he was wearing some badge honouring some women who did something in some war at his press confernce and he made sure everyone noticed it.

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

I'm shocked at the lack of quality designs for a Redskins rebrand. You'd think graphic designers would be all over this opportunity to show something cool, but there's nothing
