bel air's main street

Growing up near Baltimore, long-time radio  voice of the Washington Wizards Dave Johnson developed a love of sports and broadcasting by listening to, among others, local play-by-play legends Chuck Thompson and Bill O'Donnell.  After graduating from Towson University, Dave embarked on his own Emmy-award winning career in broadcasting, including his current posts with the NBA's Washington Wizards and D.C.'s 103.5 WTOP-FM, where he's the sports director and morning sports anchor. 

Find out why Dave calls sports a "cocoon of joy" and why he characterizes his career as a series of healthy obsessions.  He also shares what it's like having the name "Dave Johnson" in a sports town known for "Dave Johnson's."  Let's give a Harford County welcome to one of its newest and most prominent residents!

Jessica Long is an elite athlete with a jaw-dropping string of accomplishments and awards.  The path to that lofty status, however, has not been without frustration.  Along with her 29 Paralympic medals, Jessica has had to endure 25 surguries as a result of fibular hememila, a cogenital limb deficiency that led to the amputation of both legs below the knee.  Born to teenage parents in Russia, Jessica also had to learn to forgive her birth mother for giving her up  for adoption.  Instead of succuming to the anger that she acknowledges characterized her early years, Jessica transformed the power of that anger into determination and used it to fuel her wildly successful career as a Paryalympic swimmer.  Along with her own determination, Jessica credits her adoptive parents, Marylanders Beth and Stephen Long, and her Christian faith with making her the person she is today. This is Jessica's story and we're honored to share it on Mainstreet.
