Re: Go Senators!
I recall your posts earlier about your love of the Expos and disdain for this ballclub that resides in US. Not sure where you are going with this or why you continue to beat a drum for Montreal (the city that did not support them, thus lost them). As with most things in life, it revolves around money. When a team can't flourish, they leave, eventually. I think your anger is misguided. Vent if you must, but I'm not sure outside of "you" how many people are actually listening or get your posts...

Re: Go Senators!
Two random historical notes, to lighten this one up: 1) The old Senators ( through the 1950's) were sometimes aka the Nationals. I have an old Topps card calling them the Nationals. 2) The " National Club of Washington" was considered by far the best in the US in 1867, clobbering almost everybody they met on an extensive tour. Although an "amateur" club, they were in fact baseball stars given jobs in the US Treasury Dept with little duties except to play ball, at the behest of powerful politicians. This was before civil service reform, and was an early example of how de facto professionalism was rampant in baseball before the 1869 Red Stockings helped to make professional play honest and open.Comment
