Goosebumps

This is perhaps the greatest speech in recorded history. A very meaningful speech to listen to on this day of remembrance.

As Promised

I called the executive editor of the paper twice and left two messages and haven’t heard back from him. I did just now speak to the young man who wrote this article. He is very reasonable. He said he is a blogger and can write whatever opinions he has at any time - which I agree with - and that the piece is not in the physical paper, just on his blog.

I called the executive editor of the paper twice and left two messages and haven’t heard back from him. I did just now speak to the young man who wrote this article. He is very reasonable. He said he is a blogger and can write whatever opinions he has at any time - which I agree with - and that the piece is not in the physical paper, just on his blog. His rationale is that he can’t abandon who he is and his alliances to his teams regardless of where his career takes him and he has his editor’s support in this position. He wrote about his love of the Steelers over the Redskins too. He does not think it is odd that a local reporter can like another team more than his home team. I told him it was OK and that I understood and thanked him for the professional approach to the conversation. End of story.

2.2 Rating

That is best rating we have had on television in maybe 10 years of regular season play. Another great sign post that this community is falling in love with this team. Thank you so much. Go Caps!
