the baseball thread

i think things could have been different if there hadn't been a strike back in '94. that year they were doing so well that it seemed very possible they would make it to the playoffs, maybe even win the world series (perhaps a toronto vs. montreal world series, even!). but the strike killed some fan support and attendance in most cities around the league, and the expos never really started winning lots again after the strike, so it was all downhill from there i guess.

i think the expos mascot is going to be with the montreal canadiens now, if hockey ever comes back..
