Paper Bags folks 

Post#1 » by dobrojim » Tue Nov 20, 2012 4:15 pm

I encourage all Wizards fans attending games to bring and wear a paper bag
over your head during the game. This to let mgmt know that we know what
we are watching is unacceptable.

I have never owned a single piece of Wizards gear. :D

A paper bag would not match my Bullets gear and will never go over my head when I wear my Bullets gear because I actually enjoy being out in public while wearing my Bullets gear. :D

umm no. and anyone that supports this type of bafoonery needs to have their DC sports fan card revoked.

this stuff is for loser cities like cleveland and new orleands. DC fans should never resort to this. we are better than that.

Lincoln probably wants to wear a bag over his head too but not because of the Wizards but because of what has happened to Washington DC in the past 10-12 years.

Shouldn't that be a Whole Foods bag?

Inspired by the Browns, I designed an accessory for Wizards fans to go with the paper bags.

didn't see any and given that the Wizards actually played half decently,
I gave them a break and didn't wear one myself.

If there is one small silver lining to this rebuild, it's that we are rebuilding around guys who play hard and try their best on defense. At least that's an identity, if not an actual foundation. If, by some miracle, we add a true superstar-caliber offensive player, the team would suddenly look pretty good.

I think it's a better approach than last time around when we constructed the team around Arenas and Jamison: two star-caliber offensive players who didn't know or care how to defend.

the paper bag was out again last night.

also, M Lee sits a couple rows below my seat. I took off my bag and
spoke with him briefly suggesting he publish all of EG's picks along
with notable players taken after. It's quite the indictment. He mentioned
having already published a list which I didn't explicitly remember...
