re: Capitals and Wizards likely moving to VA from DC

He’s honestly on the level of Dan Snyder in my opinion. Dan would’ve been a much better NBA/NHL owner than fat Ted because he would’ve bought championships. They’re equal pieces of shite and I’m happy this whole fiasco finally shed some light on this tool and opened more eyes. Lot of Caps fans are not going to renew their season tickets after 8 retires. He pissed off a lot of the loyal fans. People forget he fought a Caps fan for talking shite to him about the state of the team at a game once.

WASHINGTON — Washington Capital owner Ted Leonsis was involved in a physical altercation with a season-ticket holder at the MCI Center on Sunday night after being taunted and jeered by fans during the team’s loss to Philadelphia, the Capitals’ first home game since Leonsis traded All-Star winger Jaromir Jagr to the New York Rangers. The fan, Jason Hammer, 20, a Washington, D.C., resident, said Leonsis grabbed him by the neck and threw him to the ground after he had led a mocking chant of Leonsis during the game and hoisted a sign chiding him. Some witnesses explained the confrontation differently, offering varying accounts of the severity of the clash.
