. . . from '97 till now? because i swear, they've got a hat with about 20 words and keep choosing a slogan by drawing those same words. we had "we got next" and "we got game." last year was "this is who i am," this year it's "this is our game." not much of a vocabulary, huh? maybe next year it'll be "this is the game we got."

Not the best satire I have ever read, but perhaps a great example of stream of conciousness.

Sue Bird does have good penmanship.

REAL BASKETBALL

1997 was "We Got Next", of course.
1999 it became "We Got Game".
2002 was the first year of "This is Who I Am".
Now we've got "This is Our Game".

IIRC, "Join In" was the phrase used in 1998. I remember because the ads featured McCray before she had played her first season (which was 1998).

"Just think of the children" would be a good future slogan. |
