One good trumpeting of good journalism deserves another. In today’s Washington Times Bob Cohn profiles the spirit-raising efforts of two committed Caps’ fans, Sam Wolk and William Stillwell, aka Horn Guy and the Goat.
Ted Leonsis on these fans:
If one of them isn’t at the game, people send me emails. ‘Is he ok?’ ‘Did he get sick?’ They’re part of the game now.”
Fans are part of any pro sport’s experience, and the enthusiasm and prominence of these two is well worth reporting.

Here is my question:
Every home game I go to, I walk past the Capitals Fan Club table. It appears that all those people do is try to raise money to pay for their road trips.
I sit one section over from them, and they are among the least enthusiastic people at the games!
If /they/ are the “Fan Club”, shouldn’t /they/ be the ones LEADING the cheers??
