Long time lurker and long time suffering Cubs fan. I've become interested in the Nats because I have friends in the DC area that follow the team and like me, are also Cubs' fans.

I happen to be a rare individual that actually likes Jim Riggleman and would like to see him get another chance. He is a class act and I think if he ever got a real team he would do a great job.

Only time will tell if Riz and Riggs will be the guys to bring some respectability to this team.

I always root for the underdogs! Couldn't have survived this long as a Cubs' fan if I didn't.

I find your community very informative and quite entertaining. Go Nats! Go Cubs! May both teams be pleasant surprises in '10.
