A winning era for DC football starts with restoring old traditions

The firing of Ron Rivera as the head coach of the Washington Commanders may have been expected, but team owner Josh Harris has a long way to go to restore a tradition of winning football to the nation’s capital.

I was 8 years old when I moved to the D.C. area and adopted the Washington Redskins as my hometown team. Since then, I have watched a franchise repeatedly embarrass itself off the field with workplace culture issues and deranged ownership and embarrass itself on the field with abysmal and inconsistent play.
