It's little things like there are so many people for whom the Washington Post exists only as a thing they're mad at for politics reasons.

It's like they refuse to believe that D.C.

contains anything but like the Capitol, the White House and people they hate.

But, like, D.C.

is a beautiful, rich community full of so much stuff, including so many people who care so deeply about sports.

You know, I know people for whom when the Nats won the World Series in 2019, they've still got that front page framed.

They won the Capitals, won the Stanley Cup.

They've got that.

And the investigative reporting that went into...

helping to change the leadership of the now Washington commanders from the grossest set of people in the history of time who made women walk up clear stairs so everybody could look up their skirts.

That's the Washington Post's legacy of sports reporting, where it was not just about highlighting the highlights, but also highlighting the lowlights of some of the wealthiest, creepiest, worst people in the world.

And

I'm really glad to see that there have been a lot of efforts to ensure that DC sports will continue to be covered.

There's a couple of new sub stacks coming from people in DC sports, but you know, it's tough to know that the nationals currently will have one full-time person covering them.

And that's from MLB.com.

Yeah.

You've got so many amazing sports franchises with such storied histories.

And now it's,

it will be as if they don't matter, even though when they matter to millions of people.

And it's just, it's really sad.
