Thanks for posting this video. I grew up in West Palm Beach, Florida, spring training home of the Expos and home of a Class A minor league team of the Expos. I was unaware of this tribute until tonight.
I miss the Expos I hope all Canadians fans who love the Expos will travel around the MLB ball parks chanting bring back the Expos even if you guys go to the Sky Dome Spos vs Jays once again renew the rivalry I understand the Expos need a new stadium but just to see Expos fans once again will make my day Go Spos Go
I don't know. Maybe they were scared to death that a Canadian team could have won the World Series for three straight years in the 1990's. The Expos would have smoked the Yankees in 1994, and I think that would have been great for the game.
true, I heard lot of Montrealers didn't wanted MLB to come back anyway due to waht happened. I think they should try to get a Can-Am team instead. It's quite odd to see Quebec city have a baseball team and not Montreal, even if it's not major league
i say move the marlins, they had 600 people at their game last night, that's right SIX HUNDRED there was more people at the theatre i went to see Dark Knight at
@upchuck69 yeah the demographic has changed but don't forget there's a huge Baseball program in Quebec, especially in montreal.. every neighborhood in MTL has a baseball team and they all play VERY hard for the Quebec championships. Once we get a new park, (which they have plenty of place on the island.. it doesn't have to be in the downtown core) there will be a big movement to get a franchise back here.. especially since a few american franchises are failing
Idk but I think people in Montreal are more hockey fans. Just look by yourself. MTL Canadiens sucked since the Nordiques departed for Colorado until 2007-2008 season and since the strike the attendance is maxed out. The opposite happened with MTL expos
Two Things doomed 'The Expos'. One was 94' when the strike ended the march on the Championship. And number two was not getting a new ball-park. For Montreal to have any chance they would have to get a AAA franchise first. Build a new Stadium, and wait for some U.S. franchise to go into the tank.
I am proud to say that I was at that game for one last tribute to my beloved expos!
This video makes me cry each and every time.
How I miss Nos Amours.

Le Retour Des Expos
Why was there no banner for the Expos' 1981 Division Championship raised at Bell Centre along with the numbers of players for the Montreal Expos?
The expos will be back, guaranteed!!

Maybe once Bud Selig gets out of the game, baseball will come back to Montreal.
@moffman17 I think Pedro Martinez have his chance to be at the hall of fame.
