If you play a Major League game and nobody gets a hit it’s a no-hitter. You can’t penalize the player/players for how many innings you decided to make the game. If it’s not a no-hitter than a 7 inning win shouldn’t be a win.

What a great day of football! I could listen to Tony Romo tell me what play is coming all day. It takes stones to trust what you see and predict an outcome. Not many do it but I believe that’s exactly what we get paid to do. Many are scared to be wrong. He’s not and I love it!

Someday many moons from now there’ll be a big hit in Nationals history. Some will argue that it’s the biggest hit but they’ll be wrong. Because there’s nothing like the first time, the first championship. Howie’s game 7 home run will forever be the biggest hit in Nats history

Watching the replay of game 7. After Tonys home run, Juan Soto’s walk was so key. At 21 to take that walk and not try to go back to back, like they have, is extremely impressive. In a game 7 to be that disciplined and controlled, not trying to do too much is pretty amazing.
