Many Washington Wizards fans were not huge fans of the two-year Michael Jordan era. If you're one of those fans, here's a new scapegoat: Wolf Blitzer, the CNN anchor and big Wizards fan. Via Michael Lee of the Washington Post:

"At one point, I said to him, ‘This city would really explode if you put your uniform back on and started playing a little bit.’ And he laughed. Then I pressed him and pressed him. After the interview, he did it," Blitzer said in a recent telephone interview. "Now being the egomaniac that I am, I take personal credit. But I suspect there were other factors besides my excellent questioning that convinced him to come back and play."

Get your pitchforks, everyone.
