A good read here, a great long term perspective.
I read today that USA Today gave us a B+ grade for the season so far. We all want to be A+ students so we have work still left to do. 
By the way, I give USA Today a C- grade for being a petroleum based product that is shrinking and laying off people. If they can grade everyone whenever they want, we can grade them back, right?
Steve Jobs is in fine health. The stock price of Apple is ready to climb because an employee at a yogurt shop says it is so. End of story. Kill the rumors.The blogosphere at its finest right here.
2008 was a great year. It was a year of progress and change and growth and promise.
Yikes. I can’t believe I am typing those words.
For the Washington Capitals and our fans, we just finished a remarkable 12 month span, a span in which we were 52-23-6 and for the third best record in the NHL. We made the playoffs last season after a remarkable run. We won the Southeast Division crown too. We are now up 12 points in this year’s race as well in the division.
This season, for the first three months of play, we have the second best record in team history.
We have the reigning all world player on our team in Alex Ovechkin. He is second in the NHL in scoring this season as well. He won every award last season.
And this season, we are playing astonishingly well in spite of a rash of – no – a crazy amount of injuries. Who knows how good we can really be when healthy?
We have also shown the world that DC is a hockey town. We have a great and passionate fan base. Business is booming. The community has embraced this team even in a very tough and gloomy economic environment. So thank you Caps fans everywhere!
Here is to a healthy and happy 2009 Caps fans. I am hopeful I can say, ”You ain’t seen nothing yet!” Happy New Year!
