Sports: If the Montreal Expos really do move to Northern Virginia or DC next season, they should rename themselves the Washington Senators. There’s too much tradition at stake. I can just see Bud Selig asking the Devil Rays to move to the NL East, too. The Rays have been bombed in the AL East, where the Yankees and Red Sox dominate. As long as Baltimore Orioles owner Peter Angelos doesn’t mind, which I admit is a streatch of the imagination, the new Sens really belong in the AL East. Putting a DC baseball team in the National League just feels wrong to me, but Angelos may insist on protecting what he considers his territory.
