Collapse

Take a little trip back with father Tiresias,

Listen to the old one speak of all he has lived through.

I have crossed between the poles, for me there's no mystery.

The Caps blow a 3 - 1 series lead and lose to the Rangers in OT in game 7. That's the 3rd time in 4 years that the Rangers have ousted them. It's another epic collapse by a team that has specialized in it for 40 years. Coach, Barry Trotz, was brought in to change the culture. That he did, but a chance to play in the Conference Finals will have to wait for next year.

The Mets, on verge of being swept in a 4 game series with Chicago, have seen their NL East lead wane to 1.5 games. The Streaking Nationals are right on their tail.
