Who had the worst week in Washington sports
The standard answer for this question is "the Fans," now and forever. But especially this week, when D.C. pro sports teams collectively ran their losing streak to 17 games before the Caps finally broke it with a win in Ottawa.
But since answering with "The Fans" every single week would get repetitive, here are a few other choices. My selections will be dramatically revealed on the D.C. Sports-O-Meter Web chat video thing Monday at noonish. Cindy Boren has the Best Week in D.C. Sports poll.

Ted Leonsis on Arenas trade rumor: "It isn't true" By Michael Lee
Wizards owner Ted Leonsis shot down an Internet rumor on Wednesday that the team has engaged in discussions with the Orlando Magic about a possible trade involving Gilbert Arenas. Leonsis also hoped to quell the perception that the team is looking to move the three-time all-star.
Leonsis has been adamant that the Wizards have no plans to move Arenas, saying last month that "Gilbert is not going anywhere." In his e-mail, Leonsis said that he "really likes and respects" Arenas and "there are no trade discussions going on."
"The team is trying to rebuild and Gilbert is one of the leaders on the team," Leonsis wrote. "Gilbert is the best player on the team right now."
The Magic blog Orlando Pinstriped Post reported that the Wizards and Magic have kept an ongoing dialogue about Arenas. Leonsis wrote in an e-mail, "It isn't true. I wouldn't tell you if it was true but I am telling you that it is not true."

Friedgen wins coach of the year and gets fired. McNabb has an awful season and gets benched. Pretty sure I'd feel worse if I was the Fridge.

Can we vote for you, for not writing about Gilbert leaving?
