The ‘Skins are mediocre. So are the Ravens, and we expected something out of them.
The Nats are horrible. The O’s even worse.

The Caps … zzzz.
We have nothing, and have to like it.
ASCENDING: Are you kidding me?
HOLDING PATTERN: Washington Wizards, Washington Redskins
DESCENDING: Washington Nationals, Baltimore Orioles, Baltimore Ravens, Washington Capitals

Hey, I had the guy getting fired before the end of the season.
Ahem, then he ended the season as the ACC coach of the year.
Yeah. I was wrong.
