It should be the Washington "We Can't Beat The Seahawks In the Playoffs"...but maybe Redtails instead? http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/20 ... -redtails/_________________ @SeahawkGreg "I will be thrilled with 10 wins.... If we win 14 games, I will tattoo my nuts green and blue!" -- 13thMan

Maybe it's cos I is British, but I'm not seeing much of a connection between DC and the red-tailed hawk.
Washington Redtape would be a better fit, no?

Washington Rednecks.
They could keep the pig costumes.
They also wouldn't have to fix the field either, just put a couple toilets and some broken down cars on the sideline next to the shack they keep the village doctor in.

Washington Redtails? Hmm. Aptly fitting, if you consider the Urban Dictionary's definition. Which I won't link to here because this is not the Shack.
Please, America, make this happen!

Washington Pigs.
Their field looks just like what a pig's field does.
I think some of their fans still wear pig noses to games.
And they're racists.

A baboon's ass is red, and would be a fitting logo for the RacistSkins.

Move the team to London, call them the Redcoats. Put them in the AFC east so they have to play the patriots 2x a year. Best rivalry ever.

Well the Red tail was a WW2 Fighter squadron called the Tuskegee Redtail squadron.
Being an all black squadron, I'm not sure it completely removes the racist overtones that the Redskins had.

Seriously, folks, look up "redtail" in the Urban Dictionary and then tell me why anyone shouldn't be 100% for this idea! It's so much more fitting than anything else suggested.
And they could still use Carrot Top as a mascot.

There's always the Senators, a name that has been used in DC for both baseball and football in the past.
Personally, I think they should go with a name that really fits DC. You know, something like The Washington Lobbyists...
