Washington Sports and Back Day!

It is actually a nice time of year to be a Washington DC area sports fan. The Wizards won game one in Toronto, Scherzer got his first victory as a National's starter, the Capitals are tied with the Islanders 1-1 in their first round series and the Orioles have a winning record, in second place behind the Red Sox. It is good to get a good dose of hometown sports positivity before the Redskins take the field again. I am usually optimistic though and look forward to the draft and the future.

Today's quote is from Lyndon B. Johnson:

"Yesterday is not ours to recover, but tomorrow is ours to win or lose."
