This is the perfect name for the former Washington Red Skins?!! It honors some of the best fighter pilots of World War Two! I met one these Great Americans in 1996 at Vietnam Vet welcome home event! Got my picture taken with him too!
The Washington Red Tails.
Sounds a little odd, mainly because we’re so accustomed to the team’s previous name. But “Red Tails” is one of the most popular names among the many under consideration for the Washington Football Team … and it has the best backstory, hands down.
The history of the Red Tails
The Red Tails were the nickname for the Tuskegee Airmen, a cadre of pilots based out of Tuskegee, Alabama, who achieved distinction in World War II. Their name came from the stripe of red paint along the planes’ tails, used for easy identification while in the air. Originally known as “the red-tailed angels” for their ability to protect bombers on dangerous flights over enemy territory, their handle was shortened to “Red Tails,” and it stuck.

I was thinking of the DC Deceits after our politicians..
"There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."
There was a film about the Tuskegee airmen called Red Tails produced by George Lucas which was truly awful. You'd have thought that he'd have at least asked somebody about aerial warfare and not try to make a WW2 version of Star Wars. There was a far better TV film called the Tuskegee Airmen, made in 1995, which was far truer to real life. There is a truly wonderful film to be made from this but sadly teenage boys don't care for the truth only CGI action sequences.

Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

If it wasn't already copyrighted then the DC Comics would have been an excellent name!

I still prefer "Politicians." That way they have excuses for cheating, being the worst team in the NFL, having lots of millionaires on the payroll, pandering to any and all groups, persons, or corporations. The possibilities are endless.
