Washington Commanders unveil new mascot

JohnF : 1/4/2023 1:19 pm


Quote:
The Washington Commanders have unveiled a new mascot and, as the team tweeted, "he's kind of a pig deal."

Connecting with a historic part of the team's past, the mascot is a hog wearing a Commanders uniform. His name is Major Tuddy.


As if Danny hasn't damaged the franchise enough! Never change, Danny!

True story
Quote:
“Tuddy” is a “slang football term that evolved from the abbreviation of touchdown (TD) as in t = ‘tuh’ and d = ‘dee.’”

I will now never not see Daniel Snyder and imagine him in the owner's box cheering a score with "yes, another tuh-dee!"
Does anybody remember that video game?  
robbieballs2003 : 1/4/2023 1:31 pm : link
I think it was called Pigs of War or Hogs of War.
This is fantastic..  
DC Gmen Fan : 1/4/2023 1:31 pm : link
DC radio is killing this and everything else about the (dis)organization.

I mean for a Giants fan living in the DC area it's like the gift that keeps on giving the whole year.

Part of me wants to feel bad for the fanbase but yeah, no.
I so much want Elon Musk to buy that team and change......

Has done irreparable damage to one of the NFL’s most historic franchises. It’s really sad.

What's sad is Snyder leaving. He took a sound franchise and ran it into the ground. It would be very hard for a new owner and regime to be as comically bad as they have been under Snyder.

I get the "Hogs" part but leave that with the group in the stands. This is laughable. Please Giants FO never try anything like this. Their franchise is becoming a bigger joke every day.
Guess they didnt sue?

Car commercials (except Subaru) actually make me hate cars and people even more than I already do. So bravo I guess. Good job marketing team!

Yes but you know their names, don’t you. Half the battle. Watch who you Google when you are in the market.

As for Tuddy, an abomination. A mashup of the guys who dress like hogs, which was a nickname for their OL 40 years ago, and… what exactly? A soldier? Watch the simpsons episode where they come up with Poochie for his insight on how this thing came together.

Lol. That's hilarious. I get wanting to use a hog, but that thing is awful. If they were going for kid friendly, big fail. I expected something more like the razorback mascot.
I can't believe this Historic Franchise

went from the Washington Redskins to a Commander in a pig suit.

They would have been better off moving the franchise and renaming it than doing this. As a Giant fan I feel bad for this fanbase.
