I figured it was time to buy some real estate, so I started house hunting this weekend and saw this one on the market. It may be out of my price range, but what the hell, right? My only question is why the owners are selling so soon - they only bought the place a year ago. Huh.

Puckhead's Thoughts —

Even with prices going up 10% (to cover cost for gas, I guess), the Caps have been able to sign up 3800 new season ticket holders. Not too shabby. It just validates that this team seems to heading in the right direction. And whether you believe the rumors or not, the Caps' roster seems to be lining up to be an Eastern Conference power house. But we already knew that. Looks like the lines for beer and hot dogs are just getting longer. Also in other Caps' ...
