And away we go, episode

episode 1049 of the Al-Galdi podcast. It is Monday, April 14th, 2025. And in the history of the bullet slash wizards, has there ever been anything as wizards as what happened on Sunday afternoon? You perhaps have heard the phrase, so wizards. What happened on

Sunday afternoon was, wait for it, so wizards, the wizards, our tanking wizards, they won their

final game of the NBA's 2024, 2025 regular season, denying them finishing with the worst record in the NBA

and the Wizards won on a last second shot.

The Wizards concluded going 18 and 64 in the NBA's 2024, 20 regular season with a 119-18 win at the Miami Heat on Sunday

afternoon as Bub Carrington connected on a game-winning, two-foot, driving, bank-in floater as time

expired in the fourth quarter while falling down. Only our wizards. The damn Washington

Wizards. Thank you, Stephen A. Smith. The Wizards on Friday night properly lost at the Chicago

Bulls 11989, but Sunday afternoon, a different story. Much more on this, including what it means for the Wizards in the oh-so-important 20-25 NBA draft lottery later in the show. But hello and welcome to this Monday installment of the Al-Galdi podcast. The commanders have a new quarterback, though he is a man who once was a Redskins quarterback. Josh Johnson,

the well-traveled Josh Johnson, the Josh Johnson, who in his NFL career has spent time with

14 different franchises. So the commanders on Friday afternoon announced the signing of Johnson

as an unrestricted free agent, next segment, discussion, and analysis of the signing,

including Johnson's potential roles on the commanders, so why his well-traveled nature is worthy

of praise, and a look at his four-game run as a quarterback for the skins in the 2018 season.

That was a long time ago, but there was a lot to that run. Also, on the show,

I'll talk Capitals, Nationals, and Orioles. The Caps who already have clinched the number one

seed in the Eastern Conference, they over the weekend lost each game in a home-and-home with the

Columbus Blue Jackets. Saturday afternoon, a 7-0 loss at the Blue Jackets. Sunday evening,

a 4-1 loss to the Blue Jackets at Capitol 1 Arena. The Caps over their last 10 games are just

3-6-and-1. The Nats, they over the weekend, lost two or three games at the Miami Marlins.

The O's, they over the weekend, split two games against the Toronto Blue Jays at Oriole Park and Camp and Yards. Both the Nats and O's over the weekend split two games against the Toronto Blue Jays at Oriole Park at Camped Yards.
