D.C. sports is the Nats - coming off back-to-back 100-loss disasters - having the happiest fan base in the city. D.C. sports is the Verizon Center ushers making small talk after the game about who was working the Mystics game. D.C. sports is the most popular athlete in a halfway house, the most popular team recovering from a year-long debacle, and the most successful team losing in the first round. D.C. sports is a 17-year old kid from Brandywine, sitting in the stands, sulking over a brutal loss, and getting hit over the head with a flying bottle of Crown Royal.
