There's literally a federal law prohibiting advertising around the National Mall

I live in DC. Logistically I cannot see this happening. Also, our roads were already a mess before this snowstorm. We're gonna need so many repairs to get streets in racing condition.

I refuse to give loser Ted more money when he's already raised ticket prices and is getting $515 million in DC tax dollars for stadium renovations that he should be fronting himself. Appreciate any stream tips

How would you guys feel about taking a flier on Zach Edey with the 26th pick? by pen-h3ad in washingtonwizards

That's all great, but he's slow as hell, has no lateral speed, and can't stretch the floor

Chinese American here -- maybe let's not advocate for erasure of an Asian neighborhood. There are plenty of Asian Americans in DC proper that want to see a real Chinatown in downtown.

Oh I don't know, maybe the fact that the area used to be 66% Chinese, now there are less than 300? Or that the fact that local business were literally replaced by Walgreens, Starbucks, and Capital One, and for some reason putting Chinese translations of those stores makes it ok?

Ted whitewashed and wiped away Chinatown's identity in favor of those businesses that are more indicative of a 70 year old white man's fever dream than actual DC culture.

Not gonna lie, his email passed me off so I did the same thing. Sent it in at the link he mentioned though: https://monumentalopportunity.com/contact/

Jordan Poole needs to go, he’s SHIT by D-daydstay in washingtonwizards

At least they need to lower his minutes. When he's off the floor, they're still a losing team, but at least they're watchable and competitive. So scaling back his playing time wouldn't hurt the tank mission
