Some of you are going. Some can't.

If you could tell them ONE thing tonight, what would it be?

Don't draft Parker
Fire Hammond
Fire Drew

OK that's 3 things.

Make the red jerseys our primaries. Ignore everyone who says we need something different.

**** ALL Y'ALL HATERS. RED JERSEYS FOREVAH.

I would prefer showing up under the cover of darkness. Non-descript trenchcoat. Collars up. Dark-tinted glasses. No words. Just a slip of this image on a napkin:

Market the team to Madison by playing preseason games at the Kohl Center every year.

Honestly, the whole state save for Milwaukee has been ignored for far too long.

Tom Oates of the WSJ writes 4 articles at pre-ordained times:
* one on the eve of the season
* one at all-star break
* one at year-end
* one on the eve of the draft

Not sure if the GB-Madison-LAX-Fox Valley areas are ignored by the team's PR department, but coverage seems to indicate so. These areas need to be given reasons to cover the team, whether it's an event for its own sake like the Brewers' winter traveling cavalcades or playing up the human interest angles of players. Yanni's story is compelling whether a reader is a Bucks fan or not; there's angles to be played, but there's no indication this been attempted.

Thanks in advance for making the team relevant again

I'd ask them who the top 2 players are on our draft board. They might not give you a straight answer but you also might be able to figure it out based on their response. Or they might just flat out tell you.

I'd ask them their plans to fund a new arena, and what their strategies are to get more private investment. I'd tell them that they needed to find a way to make this happen without a significant public contribution.

I'd def bring up the uniforms, cause they currently suck. Also would go on and on about Wiggins and embiid, no other options at 2. Also tell them we need another top 15 without trading wolters giannis or Middleton. OK, main point, Wiggins or embiid, period!

STEP 1: Find Jimmy Chitwood
STEP 2: Convince Jimmy Chitwood to play
STEP 3: Dominance

I realize this isn't the thread to debate trades, but if we turn down a top 15 pick because we don't want to give up Wolters or Middleton, I will be very angry.

I'm sorry the internet is full of stupid, horny men and probably made your daughter never want to be on TV again. Or be on TV all the time, one or the other. Basically, the non-pathetic members of the male gender are sorry that happened.

I'm not even kidding with that, btw.

On the other hand, as many other posters have mentioned, they knew what they were doing with that.
