[Photoset] The game started out easy enough and coasted for several innings. I heard some fans complain it was boring — but when you’re winning, nothing wrong with that! In fact, I could hear what every fan was saying. I would guess there weren’t more than a couple...

It is spring training!
[Photoset] I?ll get a full post up in the morning. I?m so frustrated with the WiFi here and how long it took (and how many attempts) to get the photos up that I?m done for the night!
Nats win (barely) over the Italy WBC team in an exhibition. But yay! A game!

This is Brad Eldred obligingly signing autographs for kids behind Space Coast Stadium after the game while some players were in the batting cage further back. Of course, those kids didn

My head is swimming with all the investigation talk and I?m pretty sure it?s not this horrid sinus thing I have going on, so I?m going to ignore the elephant in the room for now. I?m not sure what to make of the game of ?telephone? sweeping through the media at the moment (story keeps ...

I guess I should start cranking posts out again soon now that the Bog has upped the ante (and has left Florida, so the production will likely slow down once he runs out of material). Boy was that fun ? at least for us readers! Imagine if he?d gone next week with more players in [...]

I spent yesterday morning planning our spring training jaunt to Florida for the first week of March. We didn?t really have much choice on the date while working around our timeshare schedule limitations. This will be the first time we?ve used a timeshare - and not even at the resort we were ...

Can you smell it? All it takes is a little imagination and visualization (lucky for me since I have a cold). Freshly mowed grass, the chatter of players reuniting and meeting new additions, the crack of bats (on golf balls?), healthy optimism? Media converging on growing Viera, Florida for the ...

[Photoset] Last Sunday, the Potomac Nationals held their 14th annual Hot Stove Banquet and Silent Auction. You can read more about it from other bloggers in attendance at Nats 320 and MASN. I hope to have some video eventually like I did last year, but I?m leaving for the tropics...

[Photoset] Ah, the benefit of getting busy and delaying a new post is that you get to see what others are saying about the inaugural NatsFest before getting down to it! Hundreds? I bet there are hundreds in this autograph line alone! Even the line to get in the gates was rather impressive half ...

Believe it or not, I had the idea for this before I learned that Joel Hanrahan's brother Mark was having a spread done in the Des Moines Register's "Juice" Magazine on his "Man Cave" (or Manctuary as he calls it). But it did give me more chit-chat fodder...

[Photoset] Wowee, it was cold out this morning! Definitely way colder down in Woodbridge, VA than it seemed to be when I left my house. I stood in line with fellow fans for about 45 minutes with tears rolling down my cheeks in the gusts of wind, my nose running, and wishing I
