1. I like them a lot.

2. The Wizards sure do like trotting out Pretty Kelly for photoshoots. They know that the thirst is real amongst their tween female fanbase. ;-)

I dig these, that's how I feel teams should do an alt jersey for home. Instead of having the road team come in with white uniforms( me just being old)
Where the offseason has more buzz happens.

Nice.

don't buy it guys...it's just another marketing ploy for Turd to get your money without actually making a good product.

I like these, but I don't want to get Leonsis any of my money.

Just like I'm getting weak about not buying partial season tix, guys I'm just saying out loud -- I may break down and buy a jersey. And enrich Uncle Ted a little. I feel weak and dirty.

Hiya Pine. Have I got a jersey for you.

A piece of history. Only worn once. Never washed. Smells like me. Smells.

Pine, if the experience of attending the game brings you joy and you have the means; I think you should enjoy yourself.

Dude's already rich AF.

You are neither enabling or endorsing Ted Leonsis by attending a Wizard's game. You are just making the best of things and having a good time supporting the home team.

For all we know this year the Wizards might exceed expectations.

Worst case scenario: You feel bad for caving in. In that case just offload your tickets.

Huh. I'm not aware of any prior uni that looks like this one. I think the Capital Bullets' are the ones that were the basis of last year's sleeved alts (red with the thick blue/white vertical stripe). Which one are you referring to?

I'm wrong, keynote.

The stars were on the pants. Not that similar.

I really do not like the two L's with the hands. It screams poor jump shot form.

True, but it also screams HOF rebounding form. ;-)

The late '80s/early '90s version of the logo (with the left hand "L" higher than the right hand "L") looked a bit more like a jump shot.
