    After retiring the name “Redskins” in July 2020, the franchise has taken the field under the name Washington Football Team during this period of transition. On Wednesday, the team will complete the rebranding process and move forward under its new name. Here’s everything you need to know before the announcement.3 hours ago

    So…Washington’s team colors are red and yellow, and they’ve just changed their name to a word that neatly gets short-handed into “Commies.”

    Bold choice.

    Obviously, there are much, much bigger issues to deal with than a NFL team name . . . but I would think Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale and The Testaments, plus the Hulu series, would have soured them on the one they chose.

    I can’t help but see the word in a different light because of those works. And, given the Washington’s recent range of issues about its team culture?

    Oh, well. The change was necessary. But they could have done better.

    Given the low-lifes that own and run that team, i suppose it could have been worse.
