The Washington Grays

That may be the Expos new name once they relocate to DC. It is the name of one of the old Negro League teams.

The quality of life in this town is about to go way up.

That's what I was thinking when I read in the paper this morning that they owned the rights to that name.

Somehow I seriously doubt that, bro.

Military aside, I can't see Washington DC really having an upswing just because of a new MLB team. The Baltimore Orioles are nearby and I don't think you can say there's a quality impact there......B-more is still ghettofabulous as always....

It's good to have all 4 major sports now (NFL, NBA, MLB and NHL). It's the mark of a major sports town.

Good point.

Hopefully, you guys support the new MLB team so they actually stay in Washington DC.

I have already put myself on a list, to get on another list, which in turn, leads to another list for season tickets. I'll willingly suffer through 3 seasons at RFK. Quality of life in DC has already gone up a few ticks, this will just add another reason to stay.

I'm so with you bro, but what's up with the Dupont Circle crowd?

Personally, I'd like to see these dives get the boot. Sleazy and physically dirty. That part of town really needs a boost, and the proposed stadium would at least be a good start.

I think it has to do with all the DL guys not having a place to go for a good booty call.

First the MLB need to win their case against the former Expos' shareholders. It's 50/50 according to most analysts.

It seems that Montreal has no desire to keep a team, based on attendance and support.

We have no desire to support losers. Marketing was poor since 1995, they got rid of the best players and expected people to spend 20$+ on a AAA team. It's not like there's nothing else to do like many other cities.

So why are the shareholders dragging their feet?

Basically, they say they were frauded by Loria since they suspect he had a secret agreement to put down the team, scare baseball fans to then have an excuse to move the team elsewhere. They could care less if the team remained in Montreal (just like 99.4% of the city) but they lost money throught this supected plan (they spend a year without a TV contract). But most sharholder are actually dickheads and very unsuccessfull businessmen. They dug their own grave in some way...

So basically what you are saying is they are Player Haters. They need to let the team go so we can get things started down here.
