Yes...it is that embarassing. Allowing fans of the opponent to absolutely take over your home stadium is already embarassing, but to allow fans of a team that has struggled as much as the Wizards over the past few years is the lowest of the low.
I know you half-full guys avoid "being negative" at all costs, but at some point don't you just get sick of this terrible losing culture? How will we ever get better results if the fans don't unanimously demand better from the organization?

& that "demand" needs to come in a real way -- staying away from the arena, buying no merch, & leaving the televised broadcasts dark.
Essentially, to accomplish these goals would require a movement, leadership, vocal effort, a slogan... that kind of thing. Seems altogether unlikely, alas.
Save Our Bucks was a big movement that yielded good results in Milwaukee.
Unfortunately, Monumental will never sell the Wiz... and Ted is going to always keep his share to himself or his son Zach.
