Welcome Home, Nationals!
If you’d asked me a year ago if we’d ever get baseball back in Washington, I would have said no way, no day. Baseball? In Washington? It still seemed like a total pipe dream. But baseball did, in fact, return to the nation’s capitol on April 14, the night of the Washington Nationals’ home opener at RFK Stadium.

Yes, Virginia, the Yankees Once Were A Bad Team
It seems like ancient history but it wasn’t that long ago. The Yankees really did have some awful seasons for long stretches at a time. From 1965 until 1976 the Yankees won nothing and for many of those years they were really bad. The hard times arrived suddenly but in retrospect they should have been anticipated.
