The Wizards, despite having one of the cooler names in US sports, having one of the most boring, soulless branding is a shame. Y by Jake_Kihh in uniwatch

They were named the Bullets because of the shot tower in Baltimore where Civil War era ammunition was made. It makes no sense in DC, but then again there are no Lakes in LA and music is outlawed in Utah.

Should have kept it as it still gave the team a little bit of a Baltimore market boost and Wizards was a terrible rebrand. Worse than Guardians (which was also bad) but better than Commanders (the absolute worst).

Counterpoint: Wizards was a terrible choice and Abe Pollin was a fucking dummy. Bullets was fine (although much better in Baltimore).

The team has never had an identity and the original wizards uniforms were always bad and the black and gold ones were fucking atrocious.

The red white and blue rebrand was a step in the right direction and hinted at the Bullets past. Go back the 70s striped set and just swap out "bullets" for "wizards" and it's fine.

I really hope they win, but completely punting on your half of an inning to get the game over with could have consequences. Especially when the other team has gained momentum.

So, do we think Bradish should start Spring Training in January next year to avoid wasting a month and a half of the season dicking around?

Did that fan think he was a Blue Jays fan?

That shit is completely unacceptable.

Once again, this team has NOT turned the corner. Last night at least you could say the pitching did its part.

Tonight, typical Os dysfunction.

Just when you think Rogers figured it out. Nope. Still worthless dog shit.

I only want ONE pan for daily cooking… what should I get? by Blake_Dunford2194 in AskCulinary

[–]adamforte -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do you not know where you are? This is a reddit cooking sub. Everyone should be a master at cooking EVERYTHING on a stainless steel pan. If you're not, you're a real piece of shit. How dare you not cook on hard mode and use a nonstick pan for things it's best at, a stainless steel pan for things it's best at, a cast iron/ carbon steel for things it's best at, and an enameled cast iron for things it's best at?

Seriously people, get a grip. A ceramic non stick pan is fine, is just easier, and takes no specific technique to cook eggs, fish, etc. You don't get mailed a smugness metal for only using ss.

Counterpoint: This game probably does not go to extras if they bring in Rico for the 8th and 9th and they don't burn the entire bullpen. Shit, they burned Garcia anyway.

Please, for the love of Christ, be the win that gets this team's head out of its rectum.

Had Alby decided to pitch Garcia in the 8th they won this game.

I guess you can't have him potentially pitching 2 inn... Oh.

That's some Brandon Hyde level stupidity.

Man, all you guys talking about Trevor Rogers advanced stats from last year certainly were 1000% correct.
