Today’s Washington Post sports page is what every city dreams about

Newspapers can be limited, hard to futz with and sometimes they get ink on your hands. But front pages are still pretty great when something big happens. Here’s what happened last night in D.C. sports:

1. The Wizards took a 2-0 series lead over the Raptors in the NBA playoffs.

2. The Capitals tied their NHL playoff series with the Islanders at 2-2.

3. Nats win on walk-off capped with an amazing, hilarious celebration.

Any of these things would be a really good sports night for a city. All three in one night is pretty great! What could possibly be better?!?!? Oh. A football schedule.
