LGT in the DC area?
So I got the following voicemail from one of my buddies last night:
"I'm just calling to concede defeat. Best of luck to you and the Tribe in the playoffs. Although I'll probably be rooting for the Cubs."
Needless to say, he's a Tigers fan (we both grew up in Michigan).
I've been lurking on LGT all season - I know, shame on me - figuring that I'd jinx things if I got too excited about this team. Stupid on my part, but rooting for Cleveland sports teams since the '80s, I understand the importance of not crossing JOBU. With the magic number at 3, I figure I don't have to worry quite so much.
Anyway, I was curious whether there are any LGT folks in the Washington, DC area. I'm getting geared up for the playoffs (as we all are), and was wondering whether people were going to meet at a local drinking establishment to watch (thx manchildinbeantown for the idea). I think it'd be great to catch the games with some truly knowledgeable Tribe fans. Let me know.
This is an excellent site (best fans in MLB), and I look forward to contributing. I'll do my best not to say anything stupid, or wax poetic about the importance of Wins or Batting Avg. :)

Re: LGT in the DC area?
Suffice it to say that there are plenty of us here. We got together a decent sized crew (myself, homelytourist, steinberg and mjmarble) at Buffalo Billiards the other day to watch game two of the Tigers series. It was good times, and I know I'm definitely down for getting together some more, perhaps on a regular basis for the playoffs.

I'll keep my eye out for more announcements. I work in NW, so it's pretty easy for me to meet up anywhere. Buffalo Billiards would be walking distance if it worked out well for you guys on Tuesday.
And the Browns Backers meet at Lucky Bar? WTF?!?! How have I lived here for 4 years and not known that? I've been driving up to Germantown!

I've also just realized that I might not be able to make the raid. I'll see what I can do, but real life is just a pisser sometimes.

Re: LGT in the DC area?
This place has its drawbacks. It can get a little crowded at night, and it's not cheap. How should I put this?... It also not exactly a dudes joint, in the way that Buffalo Billiards is, so violent hi-fives and demonstrative cursing are to be kept to a minimum.
