Commanders is new name for Washington Football Team

Commanders was chosen over other finalists such as Red Hogs, Admirals and Presidents.

From 1932 until two seasons ago, Washington had used the name Redskins — which offended Native Americans and others.

I saw nothing wrong with the Redskins name and thought they were foolish to change it, but since they went for a name change, at least they chose a decent one, Commanders sounds like a good, tough name for a Football team. I was afraid they might go completely off the deep end and rename the team the Washington Wussies.

Now that the new team name has been announced, I wonder if the uniform colors will also change or remain the same?

The Commanders, formerly known as the Washington Redskins and Washington Football Team, kept the team's signature burgundy and gold color scheme. The new-look jerseys are sharp, with Commanders boldly written across the chest.

That's good if the plan is to keep the same uniform colors.
