Some personal news: My time at The Athletic is coming to an end. I’m taking a new job that I’m REALLY excited about. I’ll tell you more about it soon. For now, though, I just want to express my gratitude for the past five years. 🙏

Not really a surprise but still disappointing. He hasn’t written something for The Athletic in awhile and his bio didn’t say he worked there anymore. The Athletic has also been cutting team beat reporters, though it sounds like he chose to leave for another job.
I guess the big question is whether his new job is covering the Caps or not. If not, then that is a major loss for the fanbase.
Anyone have any Caps reporters they like? First Samantha Pell, now Tarik El-Bashir. Wishing him all the best for his future!
I wonder if it’s either full-time for TNT or Monumental. Either way, TEB is so good at what he does.
ouch. looks like that other guy who wondered where he was, was right. damn
