So, not only are the uniform colors gawd awful, and the name on the front of the jersey is all wrong. Now we are getting the names on the back of the jersey wrong too.
BURN IT!

EMBARRASSING. Blatche has actually been productive as anyone lately. If this is a recent photo (which I'm not convinced it is,) that's kinda messed up. The guy has been hovering around, but mostly destroying, the 50% FG mark for the entire month of February...LOOK IT UP.
The Wiz are gonna be reinvented, whether re-named the Bullets or not, in the near future. Leonsis is going to bring us some talent in free agency. This is going to be one of the deepest free-agent off-seasons in recent history. Maybe ever.
Build around these young guys; John Wall is 20, Nick Young is 25. Get a big man who can board AND score (sorry JaVale McGee, Rashard Lewis) and maybe we can get to a playoff series.
Rename the team. Bullets. DC isn't that dangerous anymore...the only people who REALLY have any problem with the name Bullets live in Virginia or Maryland. Think about it.

Wow, 2 uniform fails in a month! That may be a record.
This is a question in all seriousness, did they make a personnel change with locker room staffing?
Who is responsible for embroidery of the names, Reebok? If so, isn't there Wizards QC when the jerseys get to the locker room?

he didn't notice anything was wrong because he doesn't even know how to spell his own name

And you wonder why some think this team is a joke.

Hasn't just about every pro team around here suffered this? What about the Caps? The O's? D.C. United?
[Washington NFL franchise]? Check.
Nationals? Check.
Wizards? Check.

Glad this team spent so much time on the Mr. Best Dressed and dunk contests. Pathetic.

Don't worry it won't last.
Blatche is a FAIL as far as I am concerned.

I used to buy cheese from Dan Setinberg when he worked at Whole Foods. He really knew his cheeses. Should have stayed where he knew something about his job.
