I no joke think "Washington Prime" would be a badass name. Sort of like Korean baseball teams which are named after the companies they're owned by and not the cities they play in (a la the Samsung Lions or KIA Tigers). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Est.1974 Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 If this franchise gets Bezos and Jay-Z taking over, we ain’t going to be called Prime. Let alone Commanders or any other dog**** quality name. They’ll be some out of the box, forward thinking branding in place. I’d expect something very unique. 6 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapsSkins Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 The funny thing about Bezos potentially buying the Commanders is that for a guy who gets a lot of criticism and hate, buying the team would make him universally beloved by millions of people in the DMV instantly. The guy could solve world hunger and wouldn't be as loved. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhead36 Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 Jay-Z would be a very minor owner. Dude doesn't come close to NFL money and I think he lost money when he was a minority owner of the Nets. He would definitely increase the "cool" factor of this franchise though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't the type to come up with better names than "Commanders"...they may be "forward thinking" for how the name "Commanders" is branded and used, but you guys are deluding yourself if you think any new owner will magically come here with some NFL name that has the fan base buzzing with excitement over it. I still think going with no name and only having a symbol for a name a' la Prince would have been unique and forward thinking, and most likely hated by everyone except me lol...

SoCalSkins Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 (edited) 1 hour ago, CapsSkins said: 1) The question is whether the owners care more about ousting Dan or getting a new stadium. If it's the former, Snyder is sunk. If it's the latter, then this is Snyder's last card to play to save himself. 2) There's a bunch of obscenely wealthy people who probably wouldn't give a **** to be associated w/ Dan bc part-owning a team is cool, they don't want to deal w/ the hassle of being majority owner, and even a Snyder-stained NFL franchise is guaranteed to make money given the revenue-sharing agreement. 3) Publicizing the process is 100% about jacking up bids, whether for partial or full. Snyder/BofA will be considering all options - there's no reason not to. 4) Bezos could offer Snyder a price for a full sale so high that Snyder couldn't refuse. Will he? I don't know. But this is my hope. Gun to my head, I think this results in a full sale to Bezos and the impetus is Dan's inability to get a stadium deal over the past few years. That said, I don't think it's the slam-dunk only outcome in play, and I don't want to get my hopes up just to see an announcement on a new minority group. So until then, I am staying medium. But I - we - can taste freedom. It could happen. It really could happen. We'd finally be free. A new stadium assumes attendance will normalize and cash will flow in. That’s a fallacy. No one is paying $25k per seat for PSLs with Dan as owner. It’s over dude. Your assumption that someone obscenely wealthy wouldn’t care about being associated with Dan is beyond delusional. No one wants that public reputational hit. Maybe the LiV golf investors but the NFL isn’t getting into that bed. Dan refused to pay his previous partners. That’s how Thai mess started. The reason you don’t put it out there that full sale is in play is because that is the only acceptable resolution with the public and other owners if they think it’s possible. Once that’s on the table, it’s game over to any other option. Edited November 3, 2022 by SoCalSkins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends how the NFL (and the new owners) feel about Commanders. Because I could see them being the type to hire literally hundreds of people to brainstorm and workshop something better if that’s what they wanted. I’m with you that I doubt it happens—I imagine the NFL likes the vanilla vaguely-patriotic name “Commanders”. It probably stays but I’m fine living in the dream that it won’t lol.

There is no brand with this team. You are literally buying the land around fedex and the park (400 acres) and a football team located in the richest metro area in the US. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
