OK Ted whatever you say"We have 13 healthy players and the one thing I'm not allowing anybody to do is use injuries as an excuse," Leonsis said at a news conference. "We have 15 players under contract. Two can't start the season. That means we have 13. That's all you can dress anyway.
Didn't you say last year that being a lottery team was unacceptable? Then it changed to not being a bottom 3 team?"I don't feel urgency for those reasons. I feel urgency because I feel indebted to the fans. Fans have supported us when I was honest with them," Leonsis said. "We didn't sell anybody a bill of goods. We didn't try to fool anybody. We told them we're going to be bad and then we're going to be good. Our fans stayed with us.
I thought Beal already was 6'5?
What we do when we assume no one is paying attention demonstrates our true character.
On Friday, during a very stressful week for Washington, I looked to escape the madness for 30 minutes on what was a warm fall afternoon. I was reading The Post and eating a quick lunch at a table outside a local sandwich shop while a disheveled homeless man sat nearby, persistently and unsuccessfully asking anyone who walked by if he or she could “spare a sandwich.”
After about 25 minutes, Otto Porter Jr., the Georgetown basketball star and the Washington Wizards’ newest first-round draft pick, drove up, hopped out of his car and entered the shop. Mr. Porter soon exited with his sandwich and drink — but also with a sandwich, a bag of chips and a drink for the homeless man. Mr. Porter then sat down next to the man, and they both enjoyed their sandwiches while making small talk.
It was a wonderful thing to watch. This pure act of kindness, when no one was paying any attention, demonstrated true character and a genuine concern for someone in need. Mr. Porter, kudos to you. You are a gentleman and a true role model for fans of all ages.
