Some want it to relate to the history of the franchise without the explicit Native American imagery. The Washington Warriors or Redspears  are examples there. Others are hoping for a connection specific to Washington D.C. itself. The Potomacs  would work well in that realm. A vocal faction - on social media anyway - is in support of the Washington Red Wolves , a unique brand that features limitless logo and uniform ideas.

In 2016, an Iran-based hacker gained remote access to an electric dam in New York for weeks. Earlier this year, ransomware shut down a natural gas facility for two days.

The pandemic shuttered our offices and made the idea of venturing anywhere more ambitious than a grocery store seem like a perilous journey. Any trip that required a flight or a stroll among the masses — even masked — seemed an unreasonable risk. Suddenly a planet that is forbidding — with its frigid minus-80 degree temperature and thin, unbreathable atmosphere — seems more inviting than our pandemic-wracked Earth. And while our entire planet put their plans on hold, this was one trip that could not be postponed. The orbits of Earth and Mars align only once every 26 months. If scientists miss their shot this time, they will have to wait two years before trying again. Publisher: Los Angeles Times Date: 2020-07-30T10:00:41.908 Author: ...
