What is it with the DC area/region choking in sports?

Advertisements [?]

Once again we get humiliated. Virginia (ranked #1 nationally in college baseball) got eliminated in the Super Regional. That means no College World Series. The numerous collapses by the Caps are bad enough, the Redskins have been largely miserable since the 1st tenure of Joe Gibbs, the Orioles are by far the worst team in MLB, and the Nationals can't seem to get more than 5 games over .500

The Super Regional is between 2 teams, and is a best of 3 series. Virginia won the first game (fantastic), lost the a close second game (tolerable), and in the deciding game get shut out 11-0...at home!

Sorry about the rant. Right now it's taking all I leave not to use a string of profanity.
