Landover—Fedex Field Has Had More Than Its Share Of Detractors Over The Years, But Good Luck Trying To Find Any Of Those Critics At Sunday’s Season-Opener For The Washington Football Team. After last year’s empty seats and recorded crowd noise, a sun-drenched Landover stadium was packed with clapping, chanting and cheering NFL fans happy to welcome the return of football—even if the home team did come up short in the end. “I love it being back here in person,” said Seth Lockard. “Last year we had no fans, nobody able to go to the game, and now it’s like everyone’s excited for week one.”

You mean they are no longer the Landover Redskins?

I don’t know why they care having such a hard time coming with a new name. It’s self-evident. They should be the Washington Dictators.

I once thought the Houston TEXANS was the lamest name in sports. What ??? They had a contest ???
Then along comes the Washington Football Team ??
Don't matter. I don't do football anymore. Or the others.

My daughter and SIL are die-hard Redskins fans and will never refer to the team as anything other than the Redskins. They’re going to a game in October and will be wearing ALL of their Redskins gear.

Full disclosure. As an Eagles fan, happy that the Redskins lost. Trifecta for the Cowboys and Giants too!! I think the other two need to change their names to the Fort Worth Football Team and the New Jersey Meadowlands Football Team!

They shouldn't have renamed the 'Skins.
But if they went to the new name, the words are in the wrong order. It should be Washington Team Football. That way the initials would come out right.

As a lifelong Redskins fan, I want to keep their traditional name. If it has to change, just transpose two words -- Washington Team Football... The WTFs has a certain ring to it.

WHY are so many fools simply unable to get a life. The puppet-masters will be glad to pull their strings FOREVER, while constantly distracting them from the important things in favor of the false, inconsequential and trivial.

Cheering a bit early, aren't we? There are tens of thousands of former fans who will never go back and there are those of us who didn't have any interest before the kneeling started.

Back when I watched the NFL, I was a lifetime Cowboys fan. They totally lost me 5 years ago with their little "woke" stunt (where Jerry Jones, all players and coaches, went out to the 50 yard line and knelt down). Turned off the TV, got rid of all my Cowboys memorabilia (and it was a lot), and couldn't care less about the NFL any more. Professional football is dead to me and will remain so!!!
I hated the Redskins (in the funnest way possible for a major team rival). Now I think they are the weakest bunch of losers in history for giving in to the woke militia and changing their names. Maybe they should be the Washington Foreskins now. Seems appropriate...

NFL football is better than ever. They changed the "racist" name of the team, they oppose masculinity, promote bLACK racism, revile the police, and are proudly pro-gay and pro-transgender. The adjusted goalposts match those of Marxist New America, in other words, and the fans roar for more.
