I am a Montreal Expos fan and I still beleive that Bud (Lite) Selig will be gone as commish before the Expos leave Montreal.

If Jeffrey Loria and his son David Gonesoon had built the downtown stadium as promised, the Expos would be drawing 35,000 plus to every game (especially with the team coming along the way it is). The Montreal Alouettes were drawing 2000-3000 fans per game when they were at the Olympic Stadium and when they moved to the downtown Molson stadium they have sold out every game for the past 2 years.

Now Loria and Samson have decided to totally destroy the Florida Marlins and probably make about $60,000,000 in the process as they did with the Expos. The best part of all this is that they are doing it with Seligs blessing. Selig could not even make a decision on how to settle the All Star Game so he decided that a tie was the way to go (DUH!), how can this man possibly be an effective and convincing commisioner of MLB.

BOB COSTAS where are you when we need you?
