Hour 1 - Revisiting Washington’s Name Change, PR Reality, Grammys, and NFL Hiring Moves

Hour 1 opens with Chris Russell marking four years since Washington officially changed its name, revisiting why the decision was made and why, in his view, there’s no realistic path back given the inevitable public and media backlash. Russell reinforces the point by explaining how the reaction alone makes a reversal impossible. From there, the conversation shifts gears as he shares his thoughts and takeaways from watching the Grammys, offering a lighter cultural detour from the sports-heavy discussion. The hour wraps with a look around the NFL now that all head coaching vacancies have been filled, as Russell breaks down the latest coordinator hires and ongoing interviews, setting the stage for how staffs, including Washington’s, are taking shape heading into the offseason.
