By now, you've heard that Nationals #1 pick from last year, Stephen Strasburg, will start tonight against the Pirates. That's not important. What is important is that the hype/buzz has been building since May 31st.
Stank-0 went looking for tix but they were going for a buck days ago. Nationals Park is sold out and the subway is in disarray as a result. When Stank-0 got off work, his subway was packed and it was only 5:15! Then Stank-0 saw the red shirts and knew that it was about Strasburg's start tonight.
ESPN Baseball Tonight is doing a special at Nationals Park right now. Tony Gwynn, Hall of Famer, is effusing about Strasburg.
Stank-0 is a lil worried about Strasburg. Will he live up to the hype/buzz? Will he be overcome by it? DC, you may have a new sports king, until John Wall gets drafted (hint, hint).
