They should be renamed The Crazies, both to honor people like OP and to wink at the rest of the country

Absolutely not---they used to be the Washington Senators, which sucked as a name. I am fine with the Redskins and Nationals.

Ha!

Now the only Washington Senators are those hapless shadow “senators.” Student council positions are more substantive. The shadow’s inane tv commercials in favor of DC statehood swung me to oppose it!

Maybe Jeff Bezos will buy the team and name it something.

We should go back to the Bullets. For all the teams.

Stop naming teams, places, schools and what ever else you need to name after people and questionable words. What about the Wolf or the Bird school.

Could rename the teams to the Obstructionists and Grifters.

Nationals isn’t offensive, but it is sort of dumb and dowdy. Go Nats!? Reminds me of gnats. Gross, dowdy DC.
