pedro was very gracious and classy after world series victory when he said that the victory was also for expos fans who were robbed of world series chance in 1994 with strike stoppage.

read about how the case before the courts in miami and how expos were allegedly stolen by jeffrey loria and bud selig:

As a native Montrealer, and an Expos fan since 1969 (card-carrying member of the Rusty Staub Bank of Montreal Young Expos Club ;) ), his comment really felt good to hear.

We Expos fans haven't heard a lot of good things over the past several years.

At least my second-favorite team finally got it done.

I sympathise with the exactly 9,612 baseball fans in Montreal. Really I do. But the lawsuit is, nonetheless, a joke. It will be laughed out of the SD of Fla.

you obviously know next to nothing about the present situation, its cause or the history behind baseball in montreal over the last 100 yrs.
