That's not fair...you already saw the first two games!

I think we'll take one or two back at home, and then beat them bulls! (as long as Kwame's benched)
ps. Why can't Gil & Antawn & Hughes all play well in the same game?!
Is it just me, or has the officiating in Chicago been highly suspect?

The announcers agreed, as did I. Seems all the big calls went against the 'zards, no matter what end of the floor they were on. Also, some of the most inconsistent officiating I've ever seen. Arenas chest bumps a guy and its a blocking foul. Pargo drives the lane and Jeffries pummels him and there's no call. 

RIP 21

Thanks for the support...I knew I wasn't the only one who felt like there were issues...
The 'zards got called for travelling many times - acceptable.
The Bulls got called for travelling ma...wait

wait, did you guys watch on comcast, or tnt?
the comcast people are about as biased towards DC as it gets, so I wouldn't use them as your basis for judging the officials.
anyways, the real problem is that our big men, Kwameeri, Etanya, and Brenda, all play soft defense (including Jamison). Arenas and hughes play faux-defense, as in they play the passing lanes but don't cover the ball.
Still, all I ask is for one playoff game win, that's all.

I used my eyes to judge the inconsistent calls and the big call discrepancies.
I only mentioned the announcers, because biased though they may be, the showed the calls they thought were bad in slow motion to prove their point.

As with Jansenfan, I used my own eyes to distinguish the bad calls. Phil and Steve aren't that bad, though. They often point out calls that should have gone against the Wiz and didn't.
Have you noticed that every time Steve announces that the Wiz are perfect from the FT line, they always miss? Did you see last night when he was about to say it, but didn't? Etan continued the perfect streak
Of course, it didn't last long, but I thought that was classic!

I wish I was able to get the Home Wizards tickets for their game this Saturday, but they sold out too fast. The Wiz have to win this game and make a comeback, its been too long since a playoff win in D.C.

I tell you what, they must have come up with the term "fareweather fan" in Chicago. I was amazed by the lack of crowd support those guys were getting until their fans thought they had a shot at winning. Truely sad.

Seriously, did you see all those people clear out in the last 5 minutes? Weak! I thought I was watching an Atlanta sports team (their fans are so fairweather, they never bother to show up!

The opinion of 10,000 men is of no value if none of them know anything about the subject.

Wait, I don't understand. Are you a Miami fan?
No if the Wiards win then I can go to a game and see them play the Heat but if the Bulls win then I can rub it in the faces of my friends and annoy the crap out of them
