But what makes it all so galling is the attendance from <a href="http://scores.espn.go.com/mlb/recap?gameId=280407120" rel="nofollow">games like this recent Monday nighter</a> at the Washington Nationals' brand-spanking-new stadium: 20,487 20,487 THIS is what they moved the Expos for? So that they could build a $600-million-plus stadium in Washington and draw 20,487 people to the second game there? Curses: may their stadium remain empty, may their team never win so much as a division title and may the Washington Nationals become the Mexico City Diamond Dogs 20 years down the road.

Never, ever, let anyone tell you that losing a professional baseball team is no big deal. There are all these idiots walking around with bizarre dreams of making Montreal a world class city. The trouble with these fools is that they don't realize that that is exactly what we once were. It was excellent times.
