Montreal Expos Still Sucking As Washington Nationals

For our beloved hometown readership: be aware that your no-longer hometown Montreal Expos are keeping up the headaches in their new American location. Gen X at 40 reports on a report (yeah, I love those commentaries on a commentary on...) by the Times that Bygone Sports, a throwback sports merchandising firm, owns the rights to "Washington Nationals". The MLB and them are duking it out with lawyers and dollars.
I liked the Expos when they were around, but it's this sort of thing that makes you realize they were more trouble than they were worth. More politicking over sports... except the 'spos weren't worth the politics. Wow, I'm asking for hate mail with that one.

Here's some related material on Montreal, sports, the (retarded) CBC, and other local yokel digressions.

Hereabouts, I'm wondering what we can do with the Olympic Stadium. Maybe we tear it down and build a newer and better one? LOL
