The Washington Puerto Ricans.

That's El Salvadoreans.
I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891 -
With the gentrification brought about by this ballpark, hopefully those crackwhores will now move to Prince George's County where rent is cheaper.The Washington Crackwhores.
That's the plan, at least.

Is that why they played games in Puerto Rico?
The Jays are doing just fine in Toronto. Two world series titles will do that for you.
Don't remind me. The first was at the expense of my Bravos.

seeing as the Senators did suck for most of their existence, after all, while the Grays did not
But the Senators are the team of Walter Johnson, the best pitcher in the history of baseball
.
I wouldn't mind calling them the Washington Greys after the Homestead Grays. I think the 'Senators' name is cursed. If they call them that it'll be 20 years until they move to Charlotte .
I don't understand. How do these new clubs get support? I mean, anyone who doesn't support the same team they did when they were 12 (and who their parents supported before them) are flip-floping sellouts.
That might work in a country where generations haven't left their hometowns in 1000 years, but in the US, we tend get a lot of immigrants and move around to places without a professional team.
My parents were immigrants and they care less about baseball. So I had to guide myself (and picking a team based on who your parents liked is sooo weak). And when people move to places without a professional team and then a new team moves in the area, you want to go to see the game and eventually start to like the hometown team.

Let me clue y'all into to an important fact. No Washingtonians are originally from Washington. Washington's population has quintupled in the last 30 years. This means you might persuade Washingtonian loyalties or you might get Washingtonians to the Senators games so that they can root for their original home teams.
Either way, this is not a problem.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

Yes, but you fail to understand that the name 'Senators' is cursed. I mean, any team that moves, then gets an expansion team with the same name, who then moves, has something cursed about them!
And this is baseball we are talking about... where curses are real
.

The US Senate is a cursed institution. This is nothing new for a Washingtonian.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

The Washington Censors
(there's no crying in baseball...and there's no swearing, no fighting, and no beer either)
Or maybe
The Washington Blackskins...instead of a feather in the hair, its an afropick. That would at least create a possible tie in campaign between them and the Redskins.
