I am guessing you haven't seen Ted in a while.

Did he put a rubber band on his stomach?

A lot of the activists are just really effin stupid and spent the pandemic in a social media circle jerk.

He's not local. He's from Georgia.

Sometimes it’s hard to believe how stupid some of you are. He’s a local treasure. That has nothing to do with where he was born.

Learn what local means, moron.

Don’t sign your posts.

He's still not local. One day you might learn what that word means, fool.

He's lived here since at least 1974! https://www.linkedin.com/in/tom-sherwood-1a1bb841/

According to the rules of DCUM, he is not local. He had to experience his formative years in the local high schools.

You mean he can write well, so that rules out a DCPS education.

I can say based on texts with people in my friend groups that none of us in DC or MD would go to any games in the future.

I agree 100%. As a frequent attendee at Caps games, I certainly would attend fewer games if the games were held in PY. The current location is highly convenient for me, whether I drive or take Metro. The idea of attending a weekday game at PY has zero appeal.

Don't worry, there'll be plenty of fans in Virginia that'll take your place. It might surprise you to know sports franchises don't care who buys the ticket.

but there won't be

Alexandria is a horrific location for the vast majority of the population

You alienate Moco, Howard co, PG county and most of NW DC. All of them are key players for season tickets/suites.

It will be GREAT for fans traveling to see the visiting team play given its location to DCA..just what Leonsis wants

Youngkin wasn't going to let stupid "issues" like affordable housing and mass transit stop this thing from happening. He smartly located this on the Alexandria side of National Landing so the stupid missing middle housing and reform prosecution in Arilngton won't derail this. To their credit Arlington Police are ruby-red in their politics, but you can't take a chance on trying to work with the People's Republic.

No, this isn’t going to help Mr. Religious Nutter. It’s going to be a huge mess. And he was toast as soon as he started with his attack on women.

Sorry but no. It’s another brilliant move by Youngkin. And BTW all the women I know who live in NOVA think he’s great.

This is a good reason for term limits in DC. She didn't have the vigor or gumption for a third term. A new mayor would've been more hungry for success and making their mark on the city.

PS - I still think USAO is purposely sandbagging the city and letting criminals run free to basically ruin the District for political reasons.
