So, how was your All Star Break? Hopefully the Nats have used it to get healthy and individually purge the losing from their systems.
While I was away from posting the Nats stuff for a few days, the battle between Comcast and Peter Angelo$ heated up, but I am not going to bother linking to any articles about it because it is all more of the same that you probably read on another Nationals blog anyway. I will post my remedy for the situation posted over the weekend.
One column I cannot ignore is Thom Loverro’s column about Baltimore attendance (The Wash. Times) though. To paraphrase, he tells Angelo$ and The Sun to spend less time whining and more time marketing.
By the way, the last time I went to a game, July 5, I noticed a gigantic D.C. license plate that said GO NATS! Since it is up there to remind people about the lack of voting rights for the District, I find it odd that DCist has not done about post about it since it is a cause célèbre for them.
Other things of note: In his e-mail column (sorry, no link) Thomas Boswell compared the ’05 Nats to the ’53 Braves. That is great in all except for the fact the Braves moved 12 years later. Another Boswell column, Nats Get All-Star Salute reveals that the club is getting respect from around MLB.
There is probably more, but my deadline is fast approaching. Here is what else I could gather up.
