What should the new Washington baseball team be called?

The Washington Bureaucrats

The Washington Beltway Bandits

Yes, they were an American League team named the Washington Nationals. Cite.

I don’t like DC Current - baseball teams should stick with real plurals - unless they’re “Sox.”

Meh. Better than the Anonymous Cowards.

Why’s this thread getting all the attention and not the earlier one?

Free beer in this thread.

The Washington DeeCees

Or, pushing the envelope a little…

The Washington Argyle Sox

The Washington Carpetbaggers

The Washington Partisans

The Washington Legislators

The Washington Lobbyists

The Washington Interns

The Washington Third Times a Charms

The Washington Complete Bastards

How about the Washington Berries? Along with being the fruit of the District, they have a potentially addictive chant: The bitch set me up-YEH! The bitch set me up. Smoke it up, smoke it up, all the way, all the way! :smiley:

How about the Washington Parasites?

Also, what do I do with my O’s allegiance?

Washington Washed-Ups (or Washed-Outs)

Washington Think Tank (or Stink Tank or Drunk Tank)

Washington Tax-n-Spenders

Washington Politbureau

Washington Flip-Flops

Keep it, the Washington Bitch-set-me-up’s will be off to Vegas within the decade.

I kinda liked the DC mayor’s suggestion in an article over at Yahoo.

The Washington Grays

Named after the Homestaed Grays, a Negro league team that won several championships. Lots of history and a winning tradition too.

That same article mentions that the Rangers still own the Senators name, and no one has asked about getting it back.
After that, I like Federals, kinda like the Monuments, and since hockey is alienating all it’s fans, and probably won’t be around much longer, Capitols is fine, the confusion won’t last long.
Damn fool Hockey

How about the Washington Inside Traders. They’d know the score a quarter before any else. Martha Stewart could be a cheerleader.

Washington Patriots?
Washington Defenders?
Washington Presidents?
Washington Constitution?
Washington Declaration?
Washington Stars & Stripes?
Washington Old Glory?
Washington Rights?
Washington Congressionals?
Washington Justices?
I know that the cherry trees blossom in the spring, but neither Washington Cherries nor Washington Blossoms sounds right… Washington Apples?
The only animals that live there are snakes in the grass, and Arizona already has Diamondbacks.

What do I know? I still think the Tampa Bay Devil Rays should be the Tampa Bay Thunder. What have the Lightning and Storm already, so Thunder just rounds it out.

WE have… a :wally

How about the Washington Taints?
