Who is the best sports owner in DC?

by Uncategorized

We’re asking you who is the best major sports owner of a DC-area pro team. The contestants are:
1. Ted Leonsis [Washington Capitals]
2. The Lerner family [Washington Nationals]
3. Abe Pollin [Washington Wizards]
4. Dan Snyder [Washington Redskins]
My vote [Spence] goes to Ted Leonsis, who tried to buy a championship earlier in his tenure, failed, learned his lesson, and started over the old fashioned way. He got a bit of luck in being able to draft Alex Ovechkin, but much of the Caps’ current success can be traced to solid managerial moves by the front office and ownership. Selecting Head Coach Bruce Boudreau out of minor league obscurity has been a master stroke.
