I think Joe Strummer sang a song that illustrates Ovi’s predicament perfectly.

Which DC sports team has the Most Valuable Players? That would be DC United, a team being pushed out by the city. Help Keep United in DC so they can receive a fair deal on a lease and help develop a path to build a stadium with local investment and incentives.

So many fit the situation, which is why I was not specific.

I think we will also see some small movements at the trade-deadline, but nothing drastic.

Man Rask’s play on Eakin’s goal was SO bad.

Once you take the fisting element out, it's not romantic anymore.

No relation to Man Ray.

Liked the, “Shocking…slow start for the Capitals.” Heh. Always enjoy the lunchbox, thanks for posting. It’s come a long day since the picture of the burger in the background.

I do what I can, especially in the “making guys uncomfortable” department.

Yeah, too bad the intro was cut…

Twas a fantastic intro that producer Chase cut for “time reasons”. I think he was just bitter that I included a G-men reference when I intro’d Corey. Homer.

You are particularly good at the uncomfortable guys part. As a fellow gal, keep it up. I love the Lunchbox series. But the banter makes it especially enjoyable.
