We see you Baltimore and we’re raising you this list.

What’s that smell? No, it’s not the inner Harbor – it’s the smell of a rivalry. The Nationals and the Orioles are facing off tonight in a 4-game series and whether you’re a baseball fan or not, it’s important that you know what’s really going down this week.

In light of this little Beltway rivalry, the Baltimore Sun put out a list of 100 reasons Baltimore is better than our nation’s very own capital and, while we think that is a bit un-patriotic and borderline treasonous, we’ve decided to take the high road and…do the same.

Without further ado, here are 15 reasons why DC is (scientifically proven to be) better than Baltimore (We would’ve come up with 100, but we were too busy actually enjoying it.)

1. We’re the capital of this entire nation – Baltimore isn’t even the capital of Maryland.

2. Oh, Baltimore has The Wire? DC has House of Cards…The West Wing…Veep…Scandal. Not to mention Sharknado. #HelloHollywood

3. Our Mall is so good, guys go willingly.

4. The Leader of the Free World calls DC home.

5. So does the President.

6. And Bill Nye and Wale.

7. Atlas Brew Works > Naty Boh

8. We have a magical NBA team (sorta).

9. We have a hockey team that makes the first round of playoffs every. year.

10. Food. We’re one of the best restaurant cities in America.

11. Bryce Harper.

13. Sure, we might wait in line for hours for a cupcake, but we’re still the fittest city in America.

14. The Metro is great (just kidding, but the jokes never get old).

15. And last, but not least, we have FamousDC.

At the end of the day, however, we’re all just sharing the beltway anyway.
