OT: Nats, Wiz, O's, Ravens, Terps, DC United, Navy, Gtown, etc., 2016-18

[BiPolar Caps]

My Mets win opener against the Cardinals. Thor with 10 K in 6 innings.

Also sad news just learned that "Le Grande Orange" passed away today. Feeling old, great Met but even better humanitarian. RIP Rusty Staub!

Hornets win, Bullets look flat....let the flames of controversy rage....

The Zlatan. Holy shit. Welcome to the MLS.

 

[Bananas]

The Nats are a buzzsaw with Scherzer/Strasburg on the mound. As long as those two are healthy you’ve gotta like their chances this year to make a run. That lineup is stacked with Eaton back.

Eaton looks like a spark plug so far...

He’s cost us two postseasons. He needs to be sent packing after we get a few regular season wins out of him...

The war between FP and Paulsen is starting to heat up on local DC airwaves

I wonder how long Cole will last as the #5 starter. Ouch.

Well the #5 starter is in aaa getting his innings in before his call up

Who is pegged for that?

Hellickson is the #5 starter. They signed him middle of spring training when they realized cole wasant the one. He like arrieta, Cobb and others missed almost all of spring training and have to build up arm strength

Ahhh.....one of those is not like the others

I like Bob and FP calling the Nats games. Much better crew then the snore fest that calls the O's games.

As for Paulsen, I don't listen to his radio show and when he is on NBCSN I'll tolerate him so long as the other people he is on with are worth listening to. He is the typical sports talk guy who never played anything growing up but is an expert on everything sports related. Not my thing.

Despite never playing anything growing up, Paulsen did have an interesting start in sports media, or media in general.

King George native Grant Paulsen matures from kid sports whiz into D.C. sports personality

Anyway, still not my thing.

Ronnie the Limo driver?

Inside joke for Stern fans.

First I've heard of this, turns out the Braves organist was trolling the Nats during their recently completed series:

 

[g00n]

Well he's not going to Atlanta so maybe stfu and play that racist ass tomahawk song for the zillionth time in your awesome career, organ boy.

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

Well he's not going to Atlanta so maybe **** and play that racist ass tomahawk song for the zillionth time in your awesome career, organ boy.

Not to derail the thread but I find it hypocritical to the highest degree that people lambast the Redskins for having a racist name when teams like the Braves, Chiefs, and Seminoles have a bunch of overweight white guys dressing up in Native American garb, chanting, and swinging tomahawks and no one says a word about it. Dat narrative, tho.
