Gio Gonzalez repping DC United at RFK Saturday night

Don't know what it is, but there's something so awesome about Gio Gonzalez setting foot on the hallowed ground of RFK Stadium on Saturday night for the first time for DC United-NY Red Bulls. Even better that he seems so excited about it (on Twitter, anyway). Photo above via Gio on Instagram, with caption via Gio of "I love this crowd #crunked".

Here's to hoping Gio's ready to go nine on Sunday against the Braves. Nats need a stopper, and the bullpen could use a day off.

La Barra Brava should support Gio. His passion for a game is what it's all about.
