Nationals Prevail in a Washington Marathon – The Post
When I went to turn on UPN 20 last night around 7:00 to watch one of the few Nats games that Peter Angelo$ allows us to watch in “his” territory, it didn’t even occur to me that the rainstorm I had seen, which was violently crossing Bethesda only a few hours beforehand, would factor into the night’s game. (So brilliant of me, I know.) And when I saw the rain delay announced, I thought, “Lovely! I finally get to watch a game on TV, and it rains! Does Peter Angelo$ control the weather now, too?”
Thankfully the game got underway around 9ish, and I actually did stay up into the wee hours of the morning to see Robert Fick single into right-field, allowing Marlon Byrd to score the game-winning run (around 12:40 a.m.) that felt strangely reminiscent of Wesley Snipes scoring the game-winning run at the end of Major League. ‘Twas a sweet victory!

The Lerners’ ugly garages – The Wash. Times
Am I the only one who doesn’t care where the garages are placed? Underground, above ground–one way or another, people are still gonna be able to park at the new ballpark! I think the real issue should be whether or not there’s enough parking to accommodate all the fans, because I know from too much experience how hellish it is trying to find a parking spot anywhere in the District.
