Ruling Clears Way For Expos’ Relocation<\/b><\/a> – The Post<\/i>
\n
Three judges in that annoying RICO suit ruled against former Expos owners who were trying to block the move. Now, the only thing standing between us and a permanent baseball team is the D.C. city council.<\/p>\n

This is good news for those not coming to the game, you can watch it without ordering it. Also, Paul Posluszny<\/strong> is Big11Ten<\/strong> player of the week.<\/p>\n

\n
For most of the season, I have been thinking that Joe needs to be ready. Well, my head is thinking that, my heart is not. Of course, my head, heart, spleen, lung, etc. thinks that Jay Paterno<\/strong> needs to step down. No offense to Jay (bartender, I’ll have an entendre — better make it a double), I am sure he is a great human being, but it turns out he is not a great college football assistant coach. If Jay goes (he can still work within Intercollegiate Athletics with all the other State High QBs) I will give Joe a vote of confidence.<\/p>\n
