It's tough being D.C. Sports fan...the caps have to be the most disappointing. Too good and the window is closing

Yup. Caps definitely most disappointing, for having such a great team over the years. Even when they go up 3-1 in a series I still don't get my hopes up lol, they just can't close the deal. They were the 3-1 chokers before the Warriors ever came along. They probably have this year and possibly next before the window is closed. Ovi is starting to age this year (recent hat trick notwithstanding) and we have a good team around him, but they are going to have to shed some players this offseason.
We know the deal with the Wizards, I know they are a better team this year but playoffs is partially luck combined with skill. Sometimes you need the bounces to go your way to advance. Like I said I'd love to see them advance and break this DC curse of no major sports teams appearing in the conference finals since '01 but I won't get my hopes up.
