Keyser_Soze Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Arkansas State would be very upset if they used that name. We can't be upsetting any people over names, they might have to change it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping for not hogs, but I fear that's the way they're going to go in some capacity because of their allusion to team history. The Hogs were a specific unit (O-Line), never a reference to the whole team. It'd be like if they renamed the Vikings to the Purple People Eaters or the Dolphins to the Miami Killer B's. Just feels wrong. But if that's the way they go I'm still down. The name ultimately doesn't matter a ton to me so long as it's not something tragically stupid. I'll still be there on Sunday.

Keyser_Soze Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Hogs is a boomer name that no one else has any attachment to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would let a Dallas fan poll on the Internet choose our permanent name if that means Snyder goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kal-El814 Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 If there was a benevolent god, it would be announcing the destruction of the team and the introduction of Dan Snyder to corona. And by that I do not mean the virus but rather the atmosphere of the sun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slug Posted January 7, 2022 Author Share Posted January 7, 2022 It's looking like Admirals. It's definitely going to be something military. Apparently washingtonadmirals.com briefly redirected to washingtonfootball.com, before being changed to redirect to some charity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
