Me too.

Me too. I'm one of the few people on this board who like Grant Paulsen, but I like a less sharp voice for football play by play. I'd love to see Herzog get a season while they are deciding, but I worry he might be too old at this point.

I like Sheehan, but I realize I'm not in the majority there

.

I like him too, and he has a working relationship with Cooley, and might be able to get Doc Walker to interject something other than "put a helmet on a helmet" too

All 4 of the Sports Junkies. A pair could rotate between radio and TV at half-time. We could hear all about what bar they went to on Saturday night without having to wait until Monday...

Julie Donaldson. Huh.

Leave it to Snyder to hire Donaldson and put her on the radio.

They were looking for a black and American Indian female who was a military vet but couldn’t find one.

Leave it to Snyder to hire someone for radio that has a face for TV.

She’ll undoubtedly have a show on MASN as Larry did.

the article specifically says she is not doing play-by-play and her first order of business will be to replace Michael.

Poor Cooley- I though he was good and added something

Some here think the team should keep the name Redskins and just change the insignia to a redskin potato

looks like they were caught flat footed

he Washington NFL franchise, formerly known as the Washington Redskins, is officially going to change its name to the Washington Football Team.

The new team name is effective immediately, and it will remain in place "pending adoption of a new team name," the team announced in a statement on Thursday.

I'm guessing the name change was to deflect from the office perverts, but it's absurd that there was no plan b in place

True. What kind of logo do they go with? Just "DC" on the helmet or something?

Player numbers on the helmet.

I kind of like it and think they should stick to it.

Curly W would have been great. Washington Football Nationals would be fine with me too.

Pretty sure Nike and FedEx forced their hand. The tide couldn't be turned back.

I’m almost tempted to run out and buy Redskins stuff at a discount while I can. But I won’t wear it, so it’d be a waste of money.

Bingo. Snyder has used up any good will with the fanbase so it will take multiple and consecutive winning seasons to win our favor back. He's pulled this before with an occasional playoff berth, often without a win.

At this point there has to be real signs that actual football people are running the show and he is not interfering and sabotaging the coaches behind the scenes. Until then its the same hat in a different colour.

He'll have a full stadium, first chance he gets
