Nationals Anthems

Over on the Nationals Journal blog on WaPo, there is a recurring meme that Ronnie Belliard is a) to blame for everything that goes wrong with the Nats and b) if we bash him then the Nats will win. Obviously some good material there to work with. I posted this and immediately got newposted, and also it was apropos of nothing in the discussion at the time – always a problem with trying to be topical and funny at the same time, the window closes quick.
