Yeah, that's what I meant, since everyone knows that the Expos would've been the NL East champs that year. I don't speak for democrats, democrats don't speak for me.

I'll agree that the Expos would've had a bunch of teams to beat...but that NL East Champions stat is just plain arbitrary. It has no bearing on how Montreal would've done in the playoffs at all...it's just a coincidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Québécois Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 That's right! An Official World Series baseball from the strike year. The one that The Montreal Expos would have won.Yeap, and this was the begining of the end of baseball in Montreal. At least, after the management got rid of Grissom, Walker, Alou, DeShields and John Wetteland (to name a few) during the following winter, it was the end. At least, this is where I got disconnected from that sport. It became obvious that Montreal couldn't follow the parade...I went to the last game last season, I then thought that the Expos would be missed the next summer but to tell you the truth, summer 2005 went by and nobody actually did care. They showed a few Nationals game on TV and after a couple of games, the project went down the drain because of total lack of interest. There's too many things to do in Montreal during summer time, which is another reason why people didn't care much about the Expos for the last 10 years or so...That, and too many lies from manadgment, too many bad trades and especially uncle Bud who wanted outta here...

Mac the Knife Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 Got one of those balls back in '99.No biggie.But the 'Spos wouldn't have even made it to the WS in '94 in all likelihood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterE Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 They would have likely faced the White Sox in 94 and the Sox could have possibly ended their curse 11 years sooner and it wouldn't have been that big a deal that the Sox won it this year.

friarcanuck Posted November 14, 2005 Author Share Posted November 14, 2005 The same vendor had pictures from The Big O too. The ones that were about a foot square. These were the pictures you saw on the walls went you entered the stadium from the metro.Really cool and one of a kind. Too bad I'm poor and didn't have the cash for at least one.
