We can rock the regular season but come the playoffs we tank. DC United won the league regular season twice in a row but bowed out of the playoffs in the first round. The powers that be decided to blow up the team and we've stunk ever since. The Capitals have had the best record in the eastern division of hockey but last year bowed out in the first round and this year are down 3-0 in the second round. The Redskins and Wizards just flat out stink and the Nationals are shooting for a 500 season. Not much to hang your hat on around here. Luckily the college hoops teams bring a little hope but that just take us through March. Most big market cities have the feeling that they have a shot with their teams. We just have despair. It's not the despair that kills you, it's the hope. The ship is sinking.

DC United beats Seattle but the Caps go down in flames and the Nats lose to Philly. At least we won something.
ReplyDeleteWell at least we have the Champion's league final to look forward to. Oh wait. Barcelona versus Manchester United. More despair.
ReplyDeleteI hear DC's roller derby team is pretty good...
ReplyDeleteActually I'm told that the DC roller derby scene pales in comparison to Seattle.
