Though I believe a name change is imminent in the near-future or when owner Daniel Snyder decides to sell the team (that’s more of an if), I’d advocate for the name to be reverted back to the Braves, as the team was known as the Boston Braves when they first came into existence in 1932, so there’s some continuity here before becoming the Boston Redskins in 1933.I’m also a fan of the spear logo, which is familiar at both the collegiate and high school level for teams bearing similar names.If Braves isn’t an option, I’d also go with Warriors, keeping the same spear-headed logo.

This team’s name also shares the nickname of the local high school whose track I love to workout at during those hot spring and summer days, and it’s always made me proud to see there’s no will to change the iconic name of neither the pro team nor the high school team.That said, let’s dive deeper into the history of this iconic helmet.In 1932, the Redskins were founded as the Boston Braves and their old leatherheads bore the typical dark, old gold look.In 1936, they became burgundy before switching to gold for the 1937 season.In 1938, the team used both burgundy and gold helmets before switching to burgundy full-time until the 1948 season.From 1949 to 1953, the now plastic helmet shell was gold with a burgundy crown stripe.The Redskins flipped to burgundy shells in 1954 and 1955 with a gold crown stripe and reverted back to gold between 1956 and 1958When the modern-day helmet came into fruition beginning in 1958, the Redskins’ helmet logo was actually featured at the crown level, with the sides being logoless.
