About the last RFK President's Race---I CALLED IT!!!<BR/><BR/>From where I was standing---the queue to get an autograph with Frank Howard (no, I didn't get it)---it was impossible to see the RFK video screen. But several times BEFORE today, I predicted that Teddy would not win, but lose in a spectacular way that would steal the spotlight from the other three. What better way than to show Teddy arrive at the new ballpark while the others ran into RFK?<BR/><BR/>I think I told this to SBF before. If not, I'm sure I told this to several others. Hopefully, somebody can back up my assertion that I predicted what happened today.Edward J.

I was only able to amuse myself in my last game at RFK with coming up with phrases that matched rhythmically with Let's Go Phillies: "Over-rated", "Mi-itch Williams" "Fattest City" "Ma-yor Rizzo" "Mo-ove Bombing" Could be a Style contest. . . .paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15683734720896529408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-69859876939927429392007-09-23T13:22:00.000-04:002007-09-23T13:22:00.000-04:00I've never been so disgusted to be a Nationals fan...I've never been so disgusted to be a Nationals fan. I was up in center field near the large throng of Phillies fans and with the exception of the DC sucks chant they were very well behaved. On the other hand numerous Nats fans were taken out by security for their unruly behavior, one even being overly physical with the security guard trying to escort him out. They had been warned numerous times about their behavior around the children in our section, but not once did they heed those warnings. On the other hand the Phillies fans near me were never vulgar nor did they stand right in the faces of the Nats fans to incite them the way our hometown fans did. One of them even yelling about how he wanted to place certain bodily fluids all over the visiting faithful. It was deplorable the way our home fans acted and I don’t think I want to be associated with a team that has fans saying things ruder then I have ever heard at a sporting event.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-55663118087867414492007-09-23T12:02:00.000-04:002007-09-23T12:02:00.000-04:00Washington Post is no help in helping in keeping N...Washington Post is no help in helping in keeping Nats fans informed.....check out the game story from last night.....clearly their reporter is a Philly fan....he did not even go the Nats clubhouse after the game and did not get a single quote or explore a single Nats issue after the game.

This year was not near as poor as I feared.<BR/><BR/>Still I have been at the games this weekend and it has been very frustrating. Nats do not have the players to win close games and RFK as a venue just gets worse and worse. My seats in the upper deck have not even had food or drink stands open this month (not even with 26K in the house like last night). We were forced to walk all the way around the upper deck to find any decent food or drink options.<BR/><BR/>We can debate who is a loyal fan and who is not and we know about ARMARK issues, but the LACK OF TALENT and the POOR follow up on CUSTOMER SERVICE (in the UPPER DECK at least) is on Stan and the Nats.<BR/><BR/>I am hopeful that the Plan will provide us with more talent and a pleasant customer experience at the park next year. <BR/><BR/>That said, if will are forced to watch Fick, Batista, Logan and Lopez play major roles next year, please do not blame the fans for not coming to games in late September, please take a hard look at the product Nats are asking fans to pay for.JayBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11448827055342357809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-10293336429785218912007-09-23T07:46:00.000-04:002007-09-23T07:46:00.000-04:00I can not believe how incredibly rude Philly fan i...I can not believe how incredibly rude Philly fan is... I heard a lot of "DC Su***" chants.
