Why is this self-indulgent crap even published? Who, outside the Beltway, gives a damn? Why do we have to read this drivel, as opposed to equal drivel about the Houston Texans or the Minnesota Timberwolves or Kansas City Royals? You're abusing your posting privileges.

Go take your Beltway sports angst to someplace where they care about it.

DC United finally won. So, it looks like last year's Supporters' Shield winners might be back on track after a rough start (including losing out in the Concacaf Champions Cup semis).

You can't blame a player for the team's lose. Keep in mind that baseball, just as football or hockey pool, is a team game. The fact that one player played poorly couldn't have been the deciding factor if his team supported him. When they win, the team won, when they lose, one player lost... doesn't seem like a good logic to me.

I understand the pain a loss of your favorites can provoke. I remember being eager to watch the Wellington Sevens. After England's loss I was left with the rugby tickets in my hand. New Zeeland team has a great game, and especially the debutant Declan O’Donnell was in a very good mood.
