Before Washington ever returned to baseball, they appear to be gone again. I can't say as though I blame the council member who demanded someone, in addition to the District of Columbia, pay for part of a new stadium. That seems more like common sense than a radical move. However, as much as I would like to see baseball back in the nation's capital, I think it's time for Bud Selig to cut his losses (both in PR and real dollars). It's time for contraction.
Sorry, but the MLB team formerly known as the Expos couldn't make it in Montreal or Puerto Rico and can't find a place to play or an owner in D.C. It's time for this three ring circus to end. Baseball has enough public relations problems with the steroid fiasco. It doesn't need to struggle to find a home for one of it's franchises. The time has come to dissolve the team hoping to be the Nationals.
