There's a Swingin' Town I Know Called Capital City...

If you haven't heard already, the Montreal Expos are moving to Washington, D.C. I think it's horrible what happened to that ball club. They would have ended the Braves streak of division titles if the strike hadn't taken place in 1994. We'll never know what could have been for Montreal. They could have won it all that year and got a new stadium built in Montreal because of their success. As odd as it may sound to a casual baseball fan, Montreal will always be an important baseball town. It's the first town where Jackie Robinson played minor league baseball. That alone will always keep baseball and Montreal linked. Major League Baseball has handled the situation about as well as you'd expect them to, which is to say they've botched like a DH playing shortstop. Regardless, they are moving the Expos to D.C. now. I hope it works out. I would like the team to be renamed. I sure hope they don't revert to the Washington Senators. I'm hoping for the Washington Grays in honor of the Negro League team that once played in our captial. But if you can't be nice and respectful, you might as well be cute or snide:

Any other suggestions?
