Alright, well I'm going to try and give this blogging thing a shot. Hopefully I can convince some of you out there to follow so that I'm not just a crazy guy keeping an online journal. My name is Ryan and I've been a Capitals addict since I was probably eight or so, back in the days of Steve Konowalchuk, Peter Bondra, Chris Simon, Joe Reekie and all those guys. You know, the days when the Caps would have a good season, suck the next season, do well the next year and so on. I thought this vicious cycle was awful, then came the early 2000's when the team was just plain old awful. Thank God for Ovechkin or I probably would have killed myself by now.
I am a full-time student at Shepherd University in West Virginia(save the WV jokes, this is about the only civilized area of the state) planning to graduate in the Fall of 2011 majoring in Communications with a minor in Journalism. My goal is to one day work for a newspaper or an internet site, hopefully covering the Caps. I played hockey for several years when I was younger and am looking to get back into it once I graduate. That being said, I promise that I will not post my life story everyday, just figured you should know what you're dealing with here.
Anyway, the purpose of this blog is to keep everyone informed about the Caps and attempting to do so in an entertaining way. Personally, I think I'm hilarious, but I suppose everyone thinks that about themselves. I'll try and update the blog as often as I can but between being a full time student and working a job that requires me to be there from 10 p.m.-4 a.m.(yes, it does suck in case you were wondering) I'm sure there will be some time lapses. I'll try and get the first real post up tonight during the Caps-Lightning game(assuming Comcast will show it). I look forward to doing this blog and hope that many of you will check in when you get the chance.
Peace.
