Blackjack76 Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 A friend of mine who was about to take a job with the Nationals was told this morning that they are in a "hiring freeze" now. He had four interviews with them.Las Vegas 2:1 odds (to play where the 51s play)Puerto Rico 15:1Washington 100:1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFoA Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 So, more than likely, Washington is gonna be a phantom team by next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee. Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 CCSLC get together at Olympic Stadium in 2005! (Then again maybe not) I will hold a one-man get together at CanWest Global instead. I ain't travelling to Montreal for nothin'.Except the stripclubs. They make Winnipeg strip clubs look like a badly-run CYO meeting.

CC97 Posted December 15, 2004 Author Share Posted December 15, 2004 Oh just be happy you got the team arent you from toronto? No I'm not actually... but people here seem to root for their fellow Canadian teams, we're not a hateful nation (except those in the West ) --- Chris Creamer Founder/Editor, SportsLogos.Net "The Mothership" • News • Facebook • X/Twitter • Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yh Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 Well, whether they stay for the long term or not, it seems only logical to put the team in DC for this year until they find a long term solution. That is, of course, unless DC is unwilling to put up any money to get RFK into MLB shape by spring and MLB would be unwilling to otherwise handle those costs. I guess DC would also have to expend a lot of bucks for infrastructure support and extra police for traffic control and the like as well and perhaps they're not interested in doing that either unless MLB commits to coming to D.C. for keeps.This is a thorny bramble bush, a thorny bramble bush indeed.Is Montreal even a feasible option for 2005?

CC97 Posted December 15, 2004 Author Share Posted December 15, 2004 Is Montreal even a feasible option for 2005? Olympic Stadium is still standing, they still own the turf... logically they could play there, but I would definately advise against it -- talk about your all-time embarrasments for the mlb if they go back for 2005. --- Chris Creamer Founder/Editor, SportsLogos.Net "The Mothership" • News • Facebook • X/Twitter • Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I suppose if all else fails, they could still play as the Nats and simply use Camden Yards when the O's are out of town. I'm suuuure Peter Angelos wouldn't mind that.Actually, if it's only for one year and then the team moves out to Vegas or elsewhere, he might not mind having a paying tenant - especially when it's MLB doing the paying!

I'm also sure he wouldn't mind it also because the team would be leaving, you're leaving after a season?

Shizznick Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 Well no one is currently using the AstroDome. realclearpolitics.com "Political tags - such as royalist, communist, democrat, populist, fascist, liberal, conservative, and so forth - are never basic criteria.
