<p>Annakin Slayd, known best for <a href="http://blog.fagstein.com/2010/05/02/annakin-slayd-video-2010-edition/">his songs about the Canadiens</a> (so popular <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xr9iwTFTsPA">they've been parodied</a>) but also a die-hard Expos fan, has produced <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFX92ALqxlk">a music video honouring Montreal's former baseball team</a>.</p>
<p>The look back comes just as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andre_Dawson">Andre Dawson</a> is set to be inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame tomorrow as an Expo (even if he <a href="http://www.suntimes.com/sports/2525822,CST-SPT-dawson23.article">preferred a Cubs cap on his head</a>).</p>
<p>And if that isn't enough, here's another video (well, it's more about the song than the video) to remind you of the Team of Heartbreak:</p>
<p><object width="567" height="450"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ipuHuerTW3Y&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed  src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ipuHuerTW3Y&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="567" height="450" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>And a preview of what might be the last Expos Hall of Famer someday, Vladimir Guerrero:</p>
<p><object width="567" height="450"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/fiuDI7apDeQ&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed  src="http://www.youtube.com/v/fiuDI7apDeQ&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="567" height="450" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Meanwhile, The Gazette's Andy Riga explores what to do with that giant monstrosity that the Expos used to call home, including <a href="http://www.montrealgazette.com/imbroglio/3317551/story.html">what to do with the space around it</a>, <a href="http://www.montrealgazette.com/news/Building+major+problem+overhead/3317563/story.html">what to do about its roof</a>, and <a href="http://www.montrealgazette.com/business/More+events+more+east+tourism/3317558/story.html">what to do about getting events there</a>. There's also<a href="http://www.montrealgazette.com/entertainment/numbers+cost+crowds+concerts/3317560/story.html"> some numbers worth looking at</a>, and his blog has <a href="http://communities.canada.com/montrealgazette/blogs/metropolitannews/archive/2010/07/23/big-o-olympic-stadium-montreal-stade-olympique-roof-toit.aspx">a whole truckload of suggestions from readers about the stadium's future</a> (some serious, some not so much).</p>
<p>And the <a href="http://bleacherreport.com/articles/423807-expos-ed-andre-dawson-and-the-25-greatest-montreal-expos">Bleacher Report has compiled a list of the top 25 Expos</a>.<br />
