Jersey sponsors

End of the season, so it's time to empty the notebook a bit.

This summer, Jose Burciaga, Jr., told me that the team had seen yellow/gold jerseys that were being considered as third jerseys. Wizards VP Greg Cotton laughed that off (literally) saying there were no plans for such jerseys. But I heard this elsewhere later, and while we have no announcement on jerseys for next year, we'll have to wait and see if this turns out to be true.

Burciaga also said that Sprint was on the front of the jerseys. Hmmm. That would make perfect sense as a jersey sponsor. The team is still working on that deal, but it wouldn't be a surprise to see Sprint get the nod.

Anyone else have a company they'd like to see on the Wizards' jerseys next season?

It that jose's new job spreading rumors about sponsors? It seems to be the only thing he is good at besides riding pine. Maybe worrying about not making so many mistakes instead of sponsors so be a #1 on his list.

Cerner maybe for a sponsorship, if not Blvd for sure.

I'd be surprised if Boulevard wanted to put up the kind of money necessary for this sponsorship. My money is on the Sprint/Garmin/H&R Block type companies.

Yes Pete! This is what we need. Rumors and news about our team and from around the league.

PLEASE no yellow and gold as the third jersey....that would be awful.

I hope the sponsor isn't Sprint....we see that name way too much around town as it is, and their phone service s-u-c-k-s. I am rooting for Garmin.

How about black with blue piping as the third jersey? That would be cooooool.

San Jose is going to black this year.

The 2007 electric blue would look great on black.
