maybe I'm just a shill for the French language but I wish the expos were still a team...

anyways the blue jays seem to be sucking this year...classic...

who's your favourite team to root for?

alright well, the playoffs happened....

honestly, really happy with where we are. this team is super young and was gutted near to the bones the past couple years, so to already be back to playoff contention, even if we're taking lucky breaks and only pushing to game 7s...it's a dangerous team in ...
