Most cities that lose a team to relocation have the decency to not try to poach another city’s tram but I guess no one in DC is a decent person ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

MONTREAL WASN'T DRAWING ANYONE

THEY WERE ASKING TO BE MOVED

 

[John Price]

not even zaide would go to expos games

in fact zaide does not know of expos

 

[Ben Griebe]

Aren't Mulder and Scully helping to find rebels right now who were involved in 1/6? That's a good thing, not bad.

 

[Ben Griebe]

Defending the FBI two days after MLK day is a hell of a take but not unexpected from an alt right fanatic like Mr. Price here.

 

[John Price]

Lol.

[Ben Griebe]

Too busy assassinating MLK.

 

[John Price]

Too busy assassinating MLK.

I have some McKinsey stuff to handle right now.

 

[Ben Griebe]

Didn’t know John supported the assassination of MLK but I guess it’s good to know where he stands on the issue.

 

[Ben Griebe]

I have some McKinsey stuff to handle right now.

Oh who are they working on assassinating right now? Hope it helps out one of the autocratic dictators they have as a client.

 

[John Price]

Why is he so cheap

 

[John Price]

Hal operates the Yankees like the Pittsburgh Pirates. You're a big market team in the biggest market in America.

@PanthersPens62

 

[John Price]

The Yankees should spend a floor of 500 million every year on players.

 

[John Price]

I hope the new CBA allows for owners to spend a minimum of 500 million on salary

Why should teams be allowed to be cheap?

 

[John Price]

Shit talk the Nationals all you want but the Lerners have not been afraid to open the checkbook unlike the Yankees.

Given it's backloaded but still

 

[John Price]

Which brings me again to nobody in DC liking the Orioles because of their pointless litigation which robs the Nationals of rightful money.

 

[John Price]

So get your facts straight.

How Jeffrey Loria Destroyed the Montreal Expos/Washington Nationals

The Montreal Expos were the best team in the National League back in 1994. Their roster was the perfect mix of up-and-coming youngsters and experienced veterans.
Cliff Floyd, Mike Lansing, Marquis Grissom, Moises Alou, Larry Walker, Rondell White, Pedro Martinez, Ken Hill, John Wetteland, and Darrin Fletcher were just some of the names dotting the Expos' major league roster.
The Expos got off to a fast start and when the player's strike began on Aug. 12th, the Expos had the best record in all of baseball at 74-40 and were on pace to win 106 games.
They averaged almost 24,000 fans per game and things looked bright for both the franchise and the city.
A year later, the Expos were slowly going the way of the dinosaur.
The majority of their star players were gone in a cost-cutting tsunami that slashed more than a quarter of the team's payroll. They won 31 games less (based on full seasons in 1994 and 1995) and failed to make the playoffs.
And their fans noticed. Attendance dropped a full 10,000 per game.
Baseball in Montreal was over. Oh sure, they played on for another decade, but neither the owners, or the fans, took it very seriously.

Ownership became a big issue as well, there was no way the city of Montreal and the other provincial, federal purse holders were dropping any coin for the much needed downtown ball park.
