Grand Opening: CitySports Georgetown

Last week I reported that it was looking like Steve Strasburg’s MLB debut would be June 4. Well, it seems that I was wrong. The Nationals website reports that Strasburg will be starting between June 8 and June 10 in the Nats’ series against the Pirates. They haven’t said which game, exactly, but [...]

As I exited the Verizon Center this evening, I saw a few things that spoke to what I had just witnessed. Dejected Caps fans covered their Ovechkin jerseys with jackets and pull overs.

What a night for the hometown team. The Redskins lost to the Philadelphia Eagles by a score of 27-17 in an absolutely miserable performance. You may be thinking “10 points isn’t that bad,” but, I’ll remind you that half of the Eagles team is injured and that they [...]

The inaugural season of the Washington Kastles, DC’s very own World TeamTennis team, was wildly successful, selling 94% of their seats and all of their boxes, an amazing feat by any standards. In response to this great demand, their second season proves to be even bigger and better. The Kastles Stadium (currently [...]
