Washington Redskins to retire controversial team name following review

[Caliga]

I think 'Washington Generals' would have been better but then they'd probably have to buy/license the name from the Harlem Globetrotters organization.

I think that's why Washington Generals doesn't work.
Even I've heard of them in the context of the Globetrotters baddies.

I guess if you're Washington you don't want to have the same name as a 'team' whose literal job is to lose.
