An enduring 9/11 memory happened 3 days later. I covered a high school football game in Luray, Va. 90 miles from the Pentagon in the Shenandoah. Most games were canceled so this felt special. The sense of unity in that town was so moving. I hope we can get that back. God bless the ones we lost.

Ask this washed up reality TV star how many Canadians found their final rest in Italy, France and the Netherlands during World War 2. Not to mention in the air and on the high seas. The answer: 46,000. I know. They liberated my grandfather's village in central Italy. Heroes all.

To @washingtonpost.com ownership and executives: If you see a great newspaper as simply a vehicle to reach temporary power brokers at each end of Pennsylvania Avenue, move on. You're not worthy of the reporters whose work has informed generations of readers in the District and beyond.

Anthony Beauvillier has a track record in the postseason. It's why they got him. Went to the front of the net and was there when Ovechkin's shot made it through

Ovechkin was held without a point in first round last season vs, Rangers. First time in his career he didn't get a point. Spencer Carbery said "it bothered him." Ovechkin gets first goal of playoff for Caps this time.

Ovi is on the BOARD. Great look from Tom Wilson. Looked a bit like 895. A feisty first period goes to the Caps.

Prediction time: I'll go Caps in a tough 6. Injury status for a host of guys makes things a little uneasy. Habs have young talent. A lot. Nothing really to lose. And an unrivaled home atmosphere. Maybe akin to the Leafs series in '17.

Good morning! Moderate to heavy snow is pasting the area, heaviest from around the city and south at the moment and near future. Would love to know/see what you are seeing and where. If you want to include snow totals that would be very helpful! ❄️❄️❄️

Caps get to 25 wins heading into the new year for just the 5th time in franchise history. 91-92' (25), 12-13' (27), 15-16' (28) and 19-20' (27). Some pretty damn good teams (09-10' and 16-17' come to mind) that didn't do this.

10 wins for the Commanders even before Weeks 16-17. Not sure the last time they won 11. Possibly '91? This is a team BUSTING out of the wilderness.
