A Sad Day for Montreal

Will the Montreal Expos be moving to Washington, DC? It looks pretty likely. Here's a story on Yahoo Sports. Link.

I wish the Canadian teams could succeed at a better rate. Several hockey teams have moved from Canada to the US, and now it looks like the Expos will be moving. It was just 3 short years ago when Bud Selig wanted to close down the Twins and Expos franchises. Now the Twins have won the American Leage Central Division the last 2 years. I'll be cheering them on through the World Series unless they play the Cardinals.

I thought the most depressing game in baseball was last summer. I blogged about it here. Link. Basically it was an all Canadian game during interleague play between the Toronto blue Jays ane the Montreal Expos. What was depressing is that it was a home game for Montreal and they were playing it in Puerto Rico. That had to be a slap in the face for all Canadians.
