Bad poetry or not, he's a genuinely nice guy (got to meet him once during a season ticket fan event) and an anomaly in the world of sports because he's actually knowledgable about something other than basketball. That said, he needs to work on his post moves and forget this poetry slam crap.<BR/><BR/>@ Anon6:55<BR/><BR/>The Wiz have 2-3 guys who skipped college, 5-6 who left early, and 2-3 who actually graduated/finished.<BR/><BR/>@ HuntDaddy<BR/><BR/>I'll ignore the subliminal jabs at my manhood there. You're a Lions fan, so yeah, I know you're hurting. 0-16 is going to be a hard pill to swallow. At least the Wiz will get Blake Griffin for all their troubles.<BR/><BR/>@ Uppity<BR/><BR/>Definitely hatin' on EACH player. That's sorta the point.<BR/><BR/>@ Ciara<BR/><BR/>Realistically, The Wiz can rebound next year if they get a high lottery pick, the kids continue to mature, and Arenas and Haywood return healthy.

I didn't recognize half of your team. <BR/><BR/>I don't think you're giving up your squad completely, you are just going on a losing-sanctioned vacation. I understand that when the Eagles were wack, I was MIA for a while but I still rooted for them in the cut. The Wiz will get it turned around, every team goes through this (ask the Hawks)<BR/><BR/>LOL @ you going at Stevenson like that.

Making this sorta of life-altering decision is difficult, but I'm moving forward as planned.<BR/><BR/>Funny thing is, I wrote this post a week or so ago after I went to that Pacers game (featured in photo) and watched them get smashed to a 7-win team in their own gym. I scheduled it to run today, and got a little nervous last night when it looked like they would win. Then I realized, this is the friggin' Wizards, of course they'll find a way to lose. And they did.<BR/><BR/>So, to formalize the divorce, the team's games are off my Tivo season pass. I am removing all bobbleheads from my office when I return to work. Needless to say, I won't be re-upping on my 6-game ticket plan anytime soon. The ties are severed.<BR/><BR/>I am going to adopt another NBA team (like the Grizzlies, who are pretty exciting with low expectations) and try to get into Georgetown bball more (they're sorta boring though). And there's always my Tarheels, who look like a shoe-in for the Final Four. I'll survive.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again, folks.AverageBrohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03294220544486539239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2696165851183554268.post-15624430989242329032008-12-26T14:51:01.680-05:002008-12-26T14:51:01.680-05:00Man, AB...tell us how you really feel. :^)<BR/> <BR/>Trashy seasons happen to all teams. Just take a break from following the Wiz until they decide to shape up. Go to NBA.com and put in some All Star votes. February isn't that far off.<BR/> <BR/>Look on the bright side, College Hoops is going strong and it's almost time for the rivalry games to start. Duke-UNC is going to be a hot one this year.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and Happy New Year!<BR/><BR/>EGebonygentlemanhttp://myspace.com/ebonygentleman97noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2696165851183554268.post-78686055302006576722008-12-26T14:34:51.228-05:002008-12-26T14:34:51.228-05:00I swear I was watching this game and laughing to myself because I knew that you were gonna be pissed and hit us with your thoughts.

I have been a fan of this team since they first came to DC in 73. This is the end of actually caring. I too sat and watched that abysmal (sp?) finish, fooled for the last time they may turn it around and win a stinking game. I can't takes no mo' With 1:30 left, I actually thought, ahhhhh!
