What is Fight For Old D.C.?
FFODC is a fan blog covering teams in the DMV (D.C., Maryland, Virginia) region. Specifically, we talk about the teams we like: Redskins, Capitals, Nationals, Wizards, Virginia Tech, and occasionally George Mason and James Madison.
Who's running this show?
My name is The Miz, and I'm (right now) the proprietor of this website. I was born and raised in Manassas, VA, and I've followed each of these teams for most of my life. Sports are a big part of my life, and this is my outlet for sharing my opinions, experiences, and thoughts on each one of my teams. I am known to use the terms 'my' and 'we' when it comes to teams in the region because of the amount of effort (and cash) I put into my obsession with them. I've got a bachelor's degree in Political Science, and quite a bit of writing experience, but no formal journalism background.
When did you start FFODC?
Technically, FFODC started in May of 2008, but it tailed off and made a big comeback in June of 2009 and we've been going strong ever since.
How often should I expect updates, and what do you talk about?
I try to update on a daily (and sometimes multiple times per day), but running a blog on my own can be tough with full-time work, grad school and a new wife. Sometimes it just isn't going to happen. However, when I am able to post, look for game previews, recaps, some statistical analysis, and plenty of opinionated articles.
How can I help out if I want to become involved with FFODC?
Please, take the time to become an active member of the blog's community. Ultimately, we'd like a vibrant community on this site, and commenting is the easiest way to get involved. Also, feel free to contact me with any ideas or stories you'd like covered, and I can look into it. From there, if you'd like to contribute, please feel free to email me at fightforolddcblog-at-gmail-dot-com. |
