Unpropitious

As most of you know I am a huge sports enthusiast. For three years I watched the last place Washington Wizards lose consistently as well as the Baltimore Orioles. It wsn't much fun unless they were playing the Lakers or the Yankees. But now, no more than three months after my departure from the capital district, the Wizards are now in the second round of the playoffs, the Orioles are in first place in their division with their best start in I dont know how long, and now the District gets their baseball team back, the Washington Nationals (formerly the Montreal Expos), and their not doing so bad either. I only hope the Fukuoka Softbank Hawks (the closest major league team to Sasebo) can bring as much fun and success as the home teams I left back in DC!! Go Hawks!
