What should be the new name of the Washington Redskins?

What should be the new name for the Washington Redskins, now that the US Patent Office has taken away the patent from owner Dan Snyder? Scott Ott, over at Scrappleface.com, thinks that the new name should bring

In that spirit, Ott suggests the new name should be
“The Washington Craps Dealers.”


From Scrappleface: President Obama applauded federal action stripping exclusive rights to the name ‘Redskins’ from Washington’s NFL franchise. Obama is seen here in a file photo at a ceremony to mark the erection of thousands of power-generating wind turbines on Indian land. The tribal chief made a speech thanking the president, and giving him the honorary Indian name “Eagle Killer.”
