Caps Fans are Everywhere

Friday, August 8th, 2008

Last week I found myself in Chicago with time to kill so I jumped on an architectural boat ride of the city. I sat down upstairs with my family and as we were set to leave, a woman entered the boat wearing a red Caps t-shirt. She immediately recognized me and yelled, ”Hey Ted! I am rocking the red and flying the flag in the second city!”

Later that night in the hotel elevator, a couple was aside us and as we were leaving the elevator the gentleman said, “Let’s Go Caps!”

Yesterday, in the Tampa airport, the baggage handler said to me, ”I just moved from DC. I am glad we got Olie down here but I still think the Caps are the class of the division.” And just now, as I received room service, the server said to me, ”Good luck next season.” It’s truly an amazing experience to see how the Caps have become so well known around the country. And we have fans everywhere. Let’s go Caps!

Monster Hoax - No Kidding

Healthy skepticism is a good thing. Did you really believe an alien had washed up on shore in Montauk? It was all a hoax. It was a movie prop. The joke is on you, me and all of us.
