Archived from groups: alt>sports>baseball>montreal-expos (more info?)

From today's National Post:

"We don't know anything about the Montreal Expos, other than they were
a vagabond team that played in Canada and Puerto Rico, and would have
played on barges in the Mississippi River if anybody would have come
to see them. Bud Selig tried 5,000 different ways to make the Expos
popular in Canada. He did everything but make Shania Twain the second
baseman. Nothing Worked" -

Washington Post columnist, Tony Kornheiser, on the recent history of
Washington's new baseball team.

Kornheiser is one of those columnists that writes tongue in cheek. He also
at times can be very annoying.

Kornheiser is a humor columist. He recommended not hiring Elliot Price,
since no one in Washington speaks French.

Do you think his "Bud Selig tried everything.." riff was tongue in cheek?
Because otherwise, Tony needs a full frontal lobotomy if that what he
thinks.

Selig tried to kill the franchise. Period.

As in, he'll say anything to get a rise out of people, even if it's not
true.
