ixcuincle Posted June 8, 2018 Author Share Posted June 8, 2018 I never saw a champion in my life in person. I followed sport in 2001 and saw years of misery, with the Redskins, with the Nationals, and the Capitals. All that was erased like a snap of the fingers of Thanos. All the pain, all the heartbreak, all the "choking", all the "DC Sports curse", gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stayed up till 11:30 watching the final minutes and the celebration in the streets and then I drove home and went to bed. By that time it was 12. Then I woke up 4 hours later. About to shower and head out to the store to camp out for merchandise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to have an important game like this on the weekend, not on a Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burgold Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 I SCREAMED FOR ALL THE GOALS AND SOME OF THE SAVES, BUT WATCHING OVECHKIN MADE IT REALLY SPECIAL. MY HISTORY WITH THE CAPS STRETCHES BACK TO PETER BONDRA, BUT I'M A REDSKINS FANS WHO ALSO SUPPORTS THE OTHER DC TEAMS REALLY. THAT SAID, THE UNFILTERED JOY IN OVECHKIN'S FACE WHEN THE WIN BECAME OFFICIAL, THE WAY HE LIVED AND DIED LIKE A FAN WITH EVERY MOMENT ON THE BENCH OVER THE LAST MINUTES, AND THE WAY THAT EXUBERANCE BUILT AND BUILT, RAW AND UNFILTERED, WAS JUST VERY REAL. THAT WAS PURE. THAT EXCITEMENT WAS REAL AS YOU SEE ON A THREE YEAR OLD'S FACE. SO DAMN COOL. SO YEAH, THIS DOESN'T SUPPLANT THE REDSKINS SUPER BOWL WINS FOR ME, BUT IT IS A VERY, VERY SPECIAL THING AND I LOVE THAT I GET TO SHARE IT WITH MY HOME TOWN!

skinfan2k Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 You can see the relief off Ovi's shoulders. It was a touching moment that he allowed Kolzig to hoist the cup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
