Well, this was supposed to be a posting about tonight’s Potomac Nationals vs. Salem Red Sox game, but Mother Nature decided to pull down her skippies and nectarate all over Prince William County. The game has been postponed until tomorrow where they will play a seven-inning double header. The Bobblehead give away scheduled for tonight will be made up on Sept. 6th. This blasted storm is a sloth-moving system that stretches from northern North Carolina to Pennsylvania. (Special thanks to long time reader, Sue, for getting on our asses for sloppy reporting.)

This sucks because it is the second Potomac game in a row that the NQ has tried to make and it has been rained out. It sucks even more because tonight was John Lannan Bobblehead Night and I couldn’t wait to put John next to my Teddy Roosevelt Bobblehead and the shrunken head I found in a seedy bar bathroom in New Orleans. To top off this wickedly horrible night– it was also fireworks night at Potomac. Poop. I like pretty lights and gunpowder.

So you aren’t going to get pics and a report from the Potomac game tonight. So instead, we are just going to post this photo of Stephen Strasburg and Kevin Bacon a la Footloose. Mama-DangerNat watched the Introduction Ceremony yesterday and informed me that Strasburg really looks like a young Kevin Bacon with facial hair. Mama knows best. She’s right.

It will be interesting to see if they get the second Nats vs. Brewers game in tonight, but after a 7-2 spanking last night– maybe it won’t be so interesting after all.

Ugh. My night is shot.

The NQ promises to make it up to you tomorrow. We’ll have some very interesting material for you then.
