Read his high school baseball team's rallying cry: "Thunder, Thunder, Thunderation, we're the Rockets Delegation/When we fight with determination, we create a soul sensation!"

Leonsis Responds to Obama's Ovie Talk

President Obama's praise of Alex Ovechkin managed to become an actual news story today, with mentions on Politico, The Hill, NHL.com, MSNBC, Le Monde, and pretty much every other news source that covers the world. Ted Leonsis was traveling today, but I e-mailed him a rough transcript of what went...

Alana Beard Raps

Alana Beard, by rights, should be one of the biggest blog superstars in D.C.: she's funny, accessible, smart, a legit superstar, and gives media members cool handshakes. But I gave up on Mystics coverage when I started chasing clicks like Gilbert chases 14-year old video gamers. Well, I haven't heard...

D.C.'s Top Six Beloved Athletes

Seriously, which other local athlete inspires this? (Photo stolen from M. Miller.) Ok, beloved isn't exactly the word I'm looking for. I'm not sure what that word is. After the pre- and during- and post-game group hug the 35,000-plus bestowed upon Ben Olsen on Sunday, Washington Post Live host...

Mystics Go Vegan Hard-Core Punk

Non-veg (Swin Cash) and Veg (Nakia Sanford). (Richard Lipski - TWP) If ignorant people like Norman Chad weren't trying to chase you all away from WNBA fandom, I'd spend most of the summer doing nothing but writing about this team. They got rid of a few of my favorites...
