Mr. President-Elect, Our House is Your House

Consider this an open invitation Mr. President-Elect to come experience a Capitals game at Verizon Center. Check out Peerless and his blog post here.

You should wear red and come and drop the first puck, perhaps at Military Night or at a playoff game should we qualify this season.

It would be our honor to host you and your family at a game and we promise that 19,000 fans at the game will all be pulling for your success in office. Welcome to DC Mr. President-Elect. 

A Friend Was on This Plane

I shouldn’t say his name until he tells me it is OK but a friend of many of us locally was on this flight and survived and is well.

I have great empathy to the survivors of this plane flight. It is truly a miracle that everyone has survived. Their lives will never be the same.

Make your list my friend! Check out these photographs and the Twitter conversations.

But I Know How to Program Media Properties

I am actually pretty confident that I know how to do that well. In fact, it may be the only thing I know how to do well. :-)

Our TV ratings on Comcast are up 140%. The Caps website has the highest level of engagement in the league. SnagFilms hit more than 100 million page views since its July launch as some examples. My soccer film on ESPN did quite well too.

So trust me Steve, tell your execs to program more Caps and more DC United and your ratings will go UP!!!!!!!!!! You will create a bigger tent with more diversity and a larger audience. The advertisers will follow.

The Washington Post gets it. I know you get it deep inside. Get with the program Sports Talk 980 and come to a game. Watch a game with us in the Owner’s Box. We should go have some fun. Thanks for being there. Go Caps!
