The Party's Over

The potential value of our season ticket package lies in ruins, fellas. The dream of DC Baseball - by that I mean a team owned and operated locally - died last night. And its killer was Linda Cropp.

Linda Cropp is a small politician. Sure, she is the Chairman of the D.C. Council right now. But this too shall pass. And when she dies - as we all die - she will be known for one thing. One single thing - she killed any chance of Major League Baseball in DC for generations to come. Her arrogance, her obduracy, her obtuseness and her pettiness will be remembered. Nothing else. She not only was writing a bill last night, she was writing her epitaph.

I hope you like the fact that you will be remembered for being small-minded, Linda. Good luck with that.
