The D.C. Sports Bloggerati will be holding court tomorrow at the Rhino Bar in Georgetown from about 7 p.m. until whenever. Come one, come all.
Updates may be sparse today. I'm on the back end of an office move and have a ton of work to do. I do hope to get my photos from my weekend in NYC developed later today, (that's right, FILM!), and hopefully Flickr will stop acting weird at some point and I will be able to upload them without having them turn into someone else's photos.
