GOOD NEWS FOR REDSKINS: HE IS BACK AGAIN…….
Josh Harris beamingly bragged about taking over the NFL team he and co-owner Mitch Rales grew up cheering for, the day after he took over the Washington Commanders.
Harris remarked, “I grew up with the Hogs, Darrell Green, John Riggins, Doug Williams, Joe Gibbs, Joe Theismann, Mark Rypien, Sonny Jurgensen, and the rest of these legends and three Super Bowl championships.” “Everyone wanted to be a part of the Redskins team back then.”
Speaking of migrating to the area, Rales mentioned trading in his Pittsburgh Steelers for the “then-Redskins.” The squad hasn’t been named that since 2020, when Dan Snyder abandoned the name he insisted on using for more than two years due to pressure from sponsors during the national reckoning on racism following the killing of George Floyd.
In less than two years since the Commanders rebranded, supporters on both sides and analysts keeping a close eye are divided on the future, even though it’s nearly a given that Washington won’t be the Redskins again.
decades as the owner, he would never desert.
The group led by Harris, which also includes Magic Johnson, has begun to make references to the previous moniker, reigniting the heated discussion of what the legendary franchise’s current and future names should be.
