Home Team Sports, the channel you cheer for. Home Team Sports, the channel you cheer for.

We got the Bullets, we got the Caps, Orioles magic, THE BLAST!

Yeah I just aged myself. Lol

If you grew up in the DMV (Metro Area) these two songs will forever be stuck in your head.
I remember this

other than the skins,I remember the bullets winning the championship against the sonics in 78 the year we got cable channels from dc here.unseld was MVP.
Adding Bobby Dandridge was the winning move. I think he held out the next year, said he was injured. My friend was assistant trainer, the trainer was at the local hangout one night and I asked about Bobby .... he said there isn't anything wrong with him.

My best friend and I were hit head on by a drunk driver in the summer of 79 ..... the Bullets signed a basketball for us and asked Jay to give it to us and say they were pulling for us. Hard to believe that was 45 years ago.

Jay was just an assistant. He probably did it for three or four years. Went on to become fairly wealthy in real estate developing.

Interesting take
Exactly!!!
So, the next time that we have that GOAT debate on this board, let's factor in 'all things being equal' (size, speed etc.) as well as the differences in the way the game is played.

george,s son turned out to be quiet the idiot gm in DC.
Blame Mike Shanahan for that one. Bruce was Shanahan’s hand-picked contracts guy and his ‘he had to come here’ hire.

As it would turn out, Bruce Allen stabbed the guy who brought him here in the back, and would continue that line of action for the next decade-plus that he had power in Ashburn.
