Happy Thanksgiving!

Sometimes I'm thankful for Tom Boswell. When he's writing as a fan (as he is in today's column), he can be excellent. It's when he delves into analysis with his Nationals Foam Finger clunkily pounding the keyboard that his stuff gets tiresome. He repeats his notion that the Lerners, especially if they do pull off the partnership with Stan Kasten, are the favorites for the team. And the rest of the column is a pleas to just get the job done.

Amen to that!

I'm off for a few days (as I suspect most of you are anyway!) Hope you had/have a great Thanksgiving, and I'll be back after the weekend. If you're jonesing for Nats info, check out the blogs. District, WWN, and the BPG forum are great for the news. The other blogs are great for the analysis. Maybe you'll like some of them -- Lord knows not all of their entries are 4,000 word treatises!
