Not quite on the scale of “the demons have been exercised” but every long suffering @Capitals fan knows these days don’t come around often. They took the hard route for sure, but came thru and now they’ll get a shot at the big bad Prez Trophy winners. Playoff hockey is the best!

Riddle me this: I’m sure the time is dictated by TV, but what other major sporting event is played on a Sunday afternoon instead of prime time?

As our kids look forward to yet another half day this week, a random idea: what about a half day that starts later (instead of finishing earlier) so the kids can sleep late?

Just read this story. Surprised it doesn’t mention the safety concerns of having 19- and even 20-year-olds potentially playing 14- and 15-year-olds, unless there was an age restriction that isn’t mentioned?

They had split world championship finals, with Snyder winning in 2017 and Sadulaev in 2018. The buildup for Saturday's final was considereable. While Snyder was the aggressor, he fell behind and was unable to catch up @mymcmedia: mymcmedia.org/in-wrestling-s…

You could sense the tension throughout the 97kg freestyle wrestling gold medal match, but @OLGCHS @Snyder_man45 could not pull out the victory, dropping a 6-3 decision to Russian Abdulrashid Sadulaev in a highly-anticipated match @mymcmedia

Tough to be better than @Snyder_man45 has been so far in Tokyo. He beat Turkey’s Suleyman Karadeniz 5-0 in the 97kg semis and will wrestle for his second consecutive Olympic gold! @mymcmedia @gcfootball @OLGCHS

And wrestler @Snyder_man45 is into the semis in Tokyo. Another dominant win, beating Italy’s Abraham de Jesus Conyedo Ruano, 6-0 in the 97kg quarterfinals. Two wins away from defending his gold medal. @mymcmedia

The first U.S. woman to win Olympic gold in wrestling, @MCPS graduate @helen_maroulis battled to compete in Tokyo, but she fell in a tightly-contested semifinal in a battle of 2016 Olympic champions. My story on @mymcmedia: mymcmedia.org/rockville-nati…

The pain was evident in @thea_lafond's voice. The Kennedy HS grad was so close to medaling in the Olympic women's triple jump, but she had gone just a bit too far before taking off. Her jump was a foul, her Tokyo dream over. More @mymcmedia: mymcmedia.org/triple-jumper-…

.@thea_lafond waited five years for another chance to compete in the Olympics. On Friday, her first attempt in the triple jump set a personal best, tops in her qualifying group, and advanced to Sunday's finals. Read more @mymcmedia: mymcmedia.org/kennedy-high-t…
