I'm in! Just 3 to go!
I'm from Canada (Winnipeg), and when I was young the only Canadian team was the Expos. They were always my favourite team, even when they weren't very good, starting from around 1970.
I lived in Montreal during 1967-68, when my Dad got a job there. I had a lot of fun going to Expo '67, the world exposition/fair.
I am SO looking forward to doing this Expos/Marlins/Nationals team.
Thanks to the commissioner, who considered the depth factor, and allowed players with AL cards to be drafted by the Expos/Marlins. I've been careful to make sure that the Montreal/Florida games were the most played compared to any other NL franchise. I realize I probably could pilfer a couple of other players, but I'm following this rule.
Having the Marlins franchise makes a big difference. I hadn't really realized until now how many great players started their careers in Florida!
Looking forward to this league, guys!!!
