done!
Thats not bad, but the ghetto slang? It used to be purely Hogs for them. The nickname for their offensive line and running backs when they won their last one in the 80s.
Nothing all that getto about an "a" and a "w."
Must be Hawgs so that when Russell Wilson says "Go Hawks", it will sound even morer dumberer.

You can't have the Washington Vanillas or Chocolates, offends too many. You can't use a person, place, or thing, again you're stepping on someone. I think they have the perfect name, The Washington Football Team,

Why can't they be the Washington Hogs? Or Hoggies? After their oline in the 80's.

I remember Carmelo Anthony saying that the Warriors should change their name. Redskins and Indians I totally get, especially with the caricatured mascots the team had over the years. Warriors seems cross-cultural. Growing up, I didn't know the name was a native connotation. The team scrubbed all the native logos/symbols when they moved to Oakland in '71. And thank goodness they did.

Oakland A's might not have a creative name but they are iconic. I say stick with the Washington football team but- whatever- Im not even a fan of the team so.......
