Unless you are up to your eyeballs in Dear Colleague Letters, you probably know by now that Teddy Roosevelt won the President's Race at Nationals Park today.
The momentous occasion comes after a 537-game losing streak from the mascot.

No big deal...but Bryce Harper, the teen sensation on the Nationals baseball team, is on the cover of USA Today. Way to go, bro! More»
Bryce Harper is settling well in DC, and hopes to play his entire career here, according to this amazing feature story in the Washington Post about the 19-year-old baseball star.
A few weeks ago, he told teammate Ryan Zimmerman that he hopes to get a long term contract (Zimmerman signed a 10-year contract extension with the Nationals earlier this year). Bryce is also toying with the idea of living here year-round/through the winter, which only three Nats do.
Bryce is "living alone in a top-story apartment in Pentagon City, a $9.9 million contract in his pocket and a $20 Weber grill on the balcony. He does his own laundry, except when his father visits. When he is bored, he goes shopping in Georgetown."
Over the weekend, news broke that Bryce Harper, the teenage [19] Washington Nationals star, is trademarking his now famous "that's a clown question, bro" phrase. More»

This engagement comes a little over a month after news of Ryan's extended contract with the Nationals, which solidifies the couple's home as DC for the next 8 or 9 years--which should make both of their sets of parents happy (his live in Virginia Beach, hers in Annandale).
Today is the beauty's birthday! She's turning 28. However, we noticed her best friend, Wetherly Barker, posted a congratulatory facebook message to her wall just before midnight, so it was not exactly a birthday proposal. More»

Fairgrounds will use salvaged shipping containers as retail spaces for vendors. More»
The rumors are circulating: baseballer Ryan Zimmerman, 27, and Heather Downen, 27, have been together for a year and a half, and he surprised her with a first-class flight to Italy this weekend. Is the time ripe for this blonde beauty from Northern Virginia to come back with a ring from one of DC's most sought-after bachelors? More»
