Bryce Harper admits he is arrogant but says it is a necessity
The more we see of Bryce Harper in the majors, the more we get the impression he is not such a bad kid after all. Whether you agree with the way he carries himself or not, you’d be lying if you said he doesn’t play the game the right way. And as for carrying himself, the 19-year-old has done a better job of that since joining the Nationals as well.
One of the biggest criticisms...

Bryce Harper with George Brett
Here's a photo of Bryce Harper with George Brett before the All-Star Game tonight. Certainly not as special a moment as Bryce Harper meeting with Frank Robinson on Monday night, but still special nonetheless.

Mike Schmidt Is Sad About Bryce Harper’s All-Star Appearance
Mike Schmidt wrote a thing about the demise of the All-Star Game, which is fine, because I like Mike Schmidt, and he played in another time, a time in which of course the All-Star Game had more meaning. But I can’t agree with this:
Enter the selection of Bryce Harper as a replacement in this year’s game. First, understand I have a great respect for Harper’s game and his presence...
NL Stars-AL Stars Preview
Bryce Harper remembered back to Oct. 27, when just 414 fans were at Scottsdale Stadium to watch his Scorpions play the Mesa Solar Sox in the Arizona Fall League.
Down 7-5, Bryce Harper vowed to teammate Brandon Crawford to hit a game-winning home run.
''I'll drop a bomb and walk off the field, tell them we own this place,'' Harper said. ''I promise you...
Good Things Come Too Those Who Wait Bryce Harper Named To All-Star team
Bryce Harper, the kid yes I said kid who asked others to vote for Chipper Jones instead of himself will find himself in a All-Star uniform anyway. Harper has been named to the All-Star team to replace Giancarlo Stanton who has an injury. The youngest position player in the history of baseball is excited to get there and take it all in with his family. The 19 year old All-Star said...
Boy Wonder?: Bryce Harper Misses Pop Up
In what turned out to be a lackluster All-Star Game, the moment of the game may have been a mental lapse by one of the league's brightest young stars.
Mike Napoli hits a lazy flyball to left and it should be an easy play for Harper, right?
Wrong.
Harper loses sight of the ball and Napoli ends up on SECOND after hitting a routine fly.
I know this is just an All-Star game...
Just Bryce Harper hanging out with Chipper Jones in the dugout. No big deal.
"Look grandpa! Baseball!"
And so, 19 year old Bryce Harper is apparently glued to 80 40 year old Chipper Jones' side on the top step of the NL dugout during the All-Star Game. That's a good thing.
Interestingly, during his pregame speech to the NL All-Stars Chipper Jones revealed that Harper nearly killed one of his kids with a line drive during BP. Still...
Yankeetorial: At the half, let's enjoy the lead that we might not be seeing in future All-Star breaks
Used to be, a Bryce Harper blossomed in another market, and it was only a matter of time before he would become a Yankee. Old George always had hooks in the water - even if they snagged Steve Trout rather than a Mike Trout - and the baseball world always grimaced and awaited our inevitable signing. But remember: In the movie, when they capture King Kong, they don't bring...
Video: Derek Jeter and Adam Dunn talk about Bryce Harper
Does it get any better than this video (via CSN Washington.com) of Derek Jeter and ex-Nat Adam Dunn gushing about Bryce Harper? Well, yes, it does. But, still, it's pretty cool to hear Jeter talk about Harper. Dunn, too. Won't be long before Harper hits one up into the third deck at Nationals Park like Dunn used to, you know?

President Obama Has Natitude
Important political news, y’all: President Obama is officially on the Nationals bandwagon. And we welcome him with open arms. From Nats Enquirer:
