On the latest episode of @DMVMessHall, @RallyCaptain and I discussed the slow death of #tailgating as we know it. While NW Stadium offers around 22,000 parking spots, the proposed RFK 2.0 will only have about 8,000 and all of them are slated to be in a garage. So the big…
#Breaking - also being told that unless a last-minute glitch pops up … “All parties are in agreement” and first council vote within days. Source says Mendo’s taxing fixes mean “tens of millions+” more for DC. @wcp

I don’t see how any Washington fan can be firmly on Terry’s side or the team’s side right now—there are just too many unknowns. What exactly did the team offer him? What is Terry realistically aiming to earn per year at age 31? Some fans are calling McLaurin greedy or pointing…
We have made the following roster moves: - Placed G Sam Cosmi on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform List - Placed WR Terry McLaurin on the Reserve/Did Not Report List

The DC City Council’s failure to act in the best interests of our city makes me seriously consider running for office next November. Instead of voting on a once-in-a-generation opportunity for the District, these elected officials are about to leave for a month-and-a-half-long…
