If we hire Larry Bowa, I will cease to be a fan. I don’t know why I dislike him so much, but he’s a deal breaker.

Some basic analysis
Hey everybody, with an entire Fall and Winter to stew I’ve decided to do some analysis on how I would fix the Nationals. I’ve started a blog that I hope to post on a couple of times a week:

Let me know what you think.
Thanks,
