Is it just me or does the Washington Wizard's logo look like a swaztika? It's subtle, but there nontheless. www.nba.com/wizards

They will always be the Bullets to me. Wizards are anti-Christian. Bullets kept America free.

They're still the Baltimore Bullets, transplanted. How about a post with the logo on it?

And they changed their name to get rid of the politically incorrect guns reference . . . who the hell thought of "Wizards"? Demons . . . dark side . . . kids committing suicide while listening to heavy metal . . .

Anyway, they stink, to hell with 'em.

I thought that I was the only one to take offence. They'd have done better by me to name themselves after one of our proud native American tribes.

They never should have changed the name from the Bullets.

The new logo doesn't look like a swastika to me, but I guess it depends on whether you're looking for it or not.

So.......how's all your blonde haired, blue eyed kids doing? Any goose-stepping yet?

I see no resemblance to a Svastika.

The swastika was a symbol of good luck prior to the adoption of it by the Nazis. When I was in grade school, I used to draw them on my books & papers all the time without knowing the history of it (good and bad). A kid would probably get expelled for doing that these days.

Personally, I'm surprised no one has called them the "Grand Wizards" and put them in little pointy hats. Bet that'd go over big in D.C., huh?

However, I see no resemblance to a swasticka. Pointy hat, yes, swastika, no.
