Lifelong Caps fan - I’m still not sure we won’t see the Penguins the next round. They’re only semi-eliminated, right?

McNulty, Daniels and Bunk will bring this whole thing down

best = beat, even.

It was predetermined as soon the Caps best Columbus.

this seems like the correct answer.

I saw them play with Double Boo-Ray at the Insect Club.

But it did happen. It always happens. The team needs an exorcism, burn sage in the Verizon Center or something. Team’s got a stank on it.

No, I do know. I happen to know that 21 of those came in 14 playoff games during his second season. He had 59 points in his first five playoff seasons over 51 games; 35 his last five over 49 games. A whopping 2 points in 2013 playoffs. Zero cups at age 32. A great regular season player, no doubt. But he’s had 3…

COUNTERPOINT - Yes, they are.

CONTENT - My Facebook memory today was from last year, in which I opined that once the playoffs start, the Caps could lose to my college’s pick-up team with me playing goalie, center and defense simultaneously for the alma mater.

My previous Facebook memories have included such status…

A very similar thing happened to my best friend from MD. He moved to L.A. in 1998 with dreams of being an actor/writer/entertainer, but he only got a handful of parts as an extra or a line or two, tops. He’s visible in a few movies - Coyote Ugly, 10 Things I Hate About You, Training Day - as a big dude in the…

In D.C., you usually have to go to Cobalt to see a ball smashed by broken wood.

There were more people in that fight than in all of Camden Yards tonight. Including players.

Thanks - I mean, it was so beyond the pale, none of my friends in MD could believe it when I told them. I ended up becoming friends with the son of a Des Moines’ police officer, and he verified my story a year later through what he’d heard from his dad, on and off the record. My mom - a die-hard law-and-order…

Volleyball injury 11 years ago turned out to be a small crack; took three years for me not to grunt when doing any weightlifting with that arm and another five for me not to act like some old frontier geezer “Ah, a storm’s a comin’ - I can feel it in me bones!!!”

there’s a TL;DR at the end.

In 1998, I moved from Maryland to Iowa for a radio gig. That job ended quickly, and I went to hang out with a friend from college in Des Moines. I quickly made some new friends, and over the next few weeks, we took turns being the designated driver as we hit the town - well, in as much as…

He keeps that jersey next to his 19-0 New England Patriots shirt.

He’s a very active player; he just doesn’t stand in the place where he works.

After going all Pepe Silvia and John Nash on this, if her allegations are true, then Mark Cuban is Reed Richards.

I could see where this would be helpful for shorter construction workers and contractors here in the US. I’m 5'9", and I’ve worked with plenty of guys who are much shorter; that extra step or two might be a *ahem* boost to them.

In a related story, he was just signed by AC Milan.
