Today, Toronto mayor Rob Ford held a press conference to admit to smoking crack, saying he did so about a year ago in one of his “drunken stupors.”
And during said press conference, the Washington football team’s logo made an unexpected cameo on a 15-year-old tie, adding yet another D.C. level to the situation.
Yup. There’s a Redskins logo on Rob Ford’s necktie. @bruce_arthur @EdgeofSports pic.twitter.com/E0uoy3F7W9

Yes, today’s news recalled D.C.’s painful past with a mayor who admitted to smoking crack. But sorry Washington Post, that former mayor does not appreciate the comparison.
