New DC football team name not tough enough


It stands to reason the new Washington football team name Commanders would convey strength, even militarism.
Doug Williams, Commanders’ team legend and advisor to Commanders’ president Jason Wright, alluded to that when he said, “When you think about DC, you think about the Commander In Chief, the military, so Commanders represents Washington better than any name we could have chosen.”
I disagree. The Washington team didn’t go far enough in equating the violent sport of football with their namesake city. My pick is more alliterative and descriptive of the combative nature of Washington’s true claim to fame on the world stage: the Washington Warmongers.
