D.C. group still hankering for Expos

A group looking to bring baseball back to Washington, D.C., has sent a 70-page missive to MLB commish Bud Selig documenting its top five choices for a new stadium site. The report claims that financing for a $342-million-plus stadium "could be completed within 120 days," according to AP, to which we can only say: yeah, right. Meanwhile, the expected target of D.C.'s wooing, the league-owned Montreal Expos, could be nearing agreement to play 20 "home games" in San Juan, Puerto Rico, next season.
