No joke. Actually if/when they do move I really hope it is to Washington. I'm already a Skins fan and when I was a kid I was a big Capitals fan (believe it or not). In fact I may just have to pack up and leave the great white north and head down to DC!

Which brings me to another point:

DAN SNYDER SHOULD BUY THE EXPOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

$120M US is a drop in the bucket for him, he could keep a competitive franchise out of his market, plus he could become a hero to a city of 4 million people. But I'll save the details for another post.

And to all you baseball fans out there, don't believe Selig and the media hype - there are PLENTY of LOYAL baseball fans in Montreal.

I think that NFL ownership rules stipulate that the owners cannot own another professional team in one of the other "big four" leagues. After the Bucs won the Superbowl, there was a bunch of speculation that their owner Malcolm Glazer had his eye on the Dodgers. I read that in order for him to do that, he would have to sell the Bucs first.

But since the Dodgers were recently bought and Glazer bought a big chunk of Manchester United (almost 20%), I guess that's what speculation will get you!

A. They both can make 60,000 people stand up and yell "Jesus Christ."

I nearly peed in my pants when I first heard this last fall. A die hard Skins fan told it to me. Funny stuff!

Well I'll gladly be Mr. Snyder's front man.

"CrazyCanuck buys the Expos" - I love the sound of that!

LOL.. that sounds strangely appropriate!

A few years ago Robert Johnson and Daniel Snyder were rumored to be interested in joining forces to purchase the Expos.

My understanding is that NFL cross-ownership rules allow owners to own teams in other sports in their home market or in markets without NFL teams.

For example, Paul Allen owns the Seattle Seahawks and he owns the Portland TrailBlazers of the NBA
