No Reason To Eliminate ‘Washington Football Team’ Name

ASHBURN, Va. — Why for the love of humanity would Washington Football Team President Jason Wright eliminate the possibility that WFT has no chance of being the organization’s permanent name?

I don’t get it and if you’re actually thinking straight – neither should you.

The problem is many with a loud voice do not use common sense. 

Like Stephen A. Smith – who simply has zero concept of what this situation is about and pops off wildly without making any sense at all. 

This isn’t about finding a better name. Or Dan Snyder not being able to. This is a painstaking process that you don’t make in five minutes or five months. 

Wright told ESPN’s John Keim this week  “There are a set of folks that have warmed to the Washington Football Team. Some of the things that are emerging from that are the Washington Football Team has something that ties deeply to our history. It feels like that isn’t jettisoning all the things we have been in the past, whereas something that’s completely new might feel that way.

“It’s important for a substantial part of our fan base to feel that this is a continuation of something versus a complete reset, something brand new.”

Regardless of what the future holds for the organization, why in the world would Wright eliminate ‘Washington Football Team’ from consideration, even if a small part of the fan base has ‘warmed to the Washington Football Team’ moniker.
