Home Town Team

by Brendan Cudd ’14 

The Washington Capitals, whose logo is pictured above, have proven themselves worthy of being considered the home team.

This town is called a Washington Redskins town, but by the performance of this season this town should be called Washington Capitals town. The Capitals are by far the best home team we have now because the redskins have fallen with a losing record and the capitals are now 7-2. The Redskins have fallen over the last few years but the Capitals are on the rise to greatness. I think this year is the year that the Capitals make a run for the Stanley Cup. I think more people are starting to turn to favoring the Capitals as the main home team because more people are seeing that the team is really the only good D.C. team that we have. People talk about the Capitals more now because of their major up rise in fame for their performance over the last few years, since every year they get into the playoffs but then unfortunately lose. I know that the Capitals have failed in the last few years going after their 1st Stanley Cup but I feel this year is their year because they have played great and have come off to a great start with a 7-2 record. This is the year of the Capitals and everybody should change to being a Washington Capitals fan; the Caps should be the home team of this town. The Redskins are doing horribly after a 3-4 record and the Caps are 7-2 so the Capitals should be the home team.
