44 years of frustration for a franchise and 26 years of heartbreak for a city all relieved in one moment. As a DC sports fan I lost hope that I would see a champion but it finally came and I am so happy for @ovi8 and all the @Capitals fans who endured this entire journey.

@Commanders Average commanders experience

This is the fullest I've ever seen Secu Stadium...it's not even over 75% capacity.

A majority of the fans are covered in orange, not even supporting the home team. Maryland has had continuous attendance issues.

Virginia Tech has received its largest commitment ever. 🙌

The unprecedented, $75 million in support will advance the university’s ambitious athletics strategy and expand one of its most innovative academic programs.

21 seasons in the books for Alex Ovechkin 👏

The Wizards haven’t won 50 games in a season since 1978-79

They haven’t played in a conference finals game since 1978-79 (longest drought in American sports)

They have exactly 50 wins in their last 250 games (3+ seasons)

They have the worst win % in the NBA from 2000-2026, 2010-2026 and 2020-2026

They were 1 lottery ball away from Zion, Wemby & Flagg

Gilbert Arenas pulled out a Glock in the locker room on Christmas Eve

Instead of signing Kevin Durant in 2016 they signed Ian Mahinmi

John Wall slipped in his bathtub and shattered his Achilles right after signing a $250 million supermax and never played another game with the team

They drafted Kwame Brown

They drafted Jan Vesely over Kawhi. Vesely retired with more fouls than points

They wanted Steph Curry but traded the 5th pick in 09 for Randy Foye instead

They officially have the worst record in the NBA again and if Adam Silver gives this team the 5th pick there will be legitimate riots in DC

Big smiles from Christina and Victor on the deck of the USS John P. Murtha, as they waited to be escorted for their routine post-mission medical checks.

Two years ago today: Millions saw a total solar eclipse across America.

Two days ago: Just four people saw a total solar eclipse from Orion.

Would you rather see an eclipse from space or, in the words of Artemis Astronaut Victor Glover, from this "spaceship called Earth"?

Liftoff.

The Artemis II mission launched from @NASAKennedy at 6:35pm ET (2235 UTC), propelling four astronauts on a journey around the Moon.

Artemis II will pave the way for future Moon landings, as well as the next giant leap — astronauts on Mars.
