MLB's hopes for a bidding war over the Montreal Expos just get dimmer and dimmer: Now comes word that Arlington, Virginia, one of several proposed locations for a new stadium in the D.C. suburbs, wants no part of the deal. The county's board of supervisors drafted a letter to the Virginia Baseball Stadium Authority last night, saying since residents were hopelessly split on the stadium plan, the board would oppose any rezoning to enable a stadium to be built there. The only remaining possible Northern Virginia site is in Loudoun County, considered the least desirable of the five original proposed sites.
