In my world, there would be no such thing as PSL's (Personal Seat Licenses).

In my world, every dollar dedicated for defense spending that blows stuff up would have to be met with ten dollars to build things that promote peace.

In my world, the Tennessee Volunteers and the New York Mets would win championships "at least once" every five years.

In my world, everyone who has a job would be allowed two shots of their favorite liquor prior to beginning work. This would promote happier and more productive workers. One caveat: If you are an Air Traffic Controller, Pilot or Surgeon, you do not get to take advantage of this.

In my world, THERE WOULD BE NO ELECTORAL COLLEGE! Popular vote trumps all.

In my world, every high school graduate would have to spend at least one year in a location outside of the U.S. (of their choosing), prior to turning 21.

Hey NatsTown! I'm in the same boat you are. Though I am a Mets fan, I live in D.C. and cheer for the Nats (when they're not playing the Mets mind you). Recognizing that the beginning of this season has been tough on us all I just wanted to share some info I've come across that (hopefully) will make your visit to NatsTown somewhat pleasurable.

I went to the home opener and didn't see any beer tent or festivities set up on Half St. between M and N streets, but maybe that was just due to my excitement to get inside the park. Regardless, the link above provides some information on what a proprietor has (or will) establish for pre-game/post-game activities directly adjacent to the Centerfield gate.

This link provides fans with info on places to grab a bite/have a drink/hang out before the game. Hope things get better. And soon.

How do you assuage a rookie mistake?

Marc Fisher wrote an article in The Washington Post that talks about the lowly / lack of things going on around the Nationals ballpark. Due to no fault of their own, the revitalization of the industrial area that was (still is) Half Street seems to be serving as a lingering black eye for the Washington Nationals.

In a separate article here he continues to discuss the lack of improvement around Nats Part to include the Matrix like (my words) statues that the Nats Organization has incorporated to try and bring some life and history of a bygone era of D.C. baseball to the D.C. faithful.

Apparently, David "The Face of the Franchise" Wright had a very important hand to play in bringing Gary Sheffield to the Mets.

Ed Chigliak, HNIC for SB Nation's Federal Baseball blog was able to get some very nice pics of Citi Field as it played host to the St. Johns / Georgetown baseball game. Much thanks "E"! Hoping to get up there in June for a couple of games.

Which answer best describes this picture?
A. Australian Rules Football
B. Start of St. Patrick's Day Mosh Pit
C. Team USA Celebrating

Epic game is all I can say! Thanks to "E" for putting up the game thread. It was much more fun to celebrate with you guys than celebrating alone. One for the ages!

Australian Rules Football or Beginning of St. Patrick's Day Mosh Pit or Team USA Celebrating? Man! What a game! Gotta be happy for these guys! * Jeter and Victorino do their best to mess this picture up, but I still like it.

Just the box score here kiddies! Had to get somethin' posted before bed. Listened to innings 6 & 7 on the way home and saw 8 & 9 at home. Unbelievable comeback with the winning bat provided by Mr. David Wright with 1 out and bases loaded in the bottom of the 9th. Oh man, what a game!
