On one side you have Canada and the other you have a team that has won because its ownership can outspend everybody. I want teams who win by developing players. |

I’d rather the Canadians win in that case since United Empire Loyalists weren’t really traitors, and it was longer ago. I’m not going to hate Canada because I dislike its government; I dislike my own government. |

If the Dodgers had moved to Shea Stadium,* the Brooklyn fans might have been annoyed, but it wouldn't have been nearly the same.*It probably would have been called something else if this had happened. |

"It probably would have been called something else if this had happened."Probably Shea's original name, Municipal Stadium That was Moses' big plan for the Dodgers, play in a new stadium in Flushing Meadow. O'Mally's curt response was If they want me to move to Flushing, I might as well move to Los Angeles. Too bad then Mayor Wagner sat on his hands and did nothing to stop the Dodgers & Giants from leaving town. Who knew at the time the NY Football Giants and the Jets would someday be playing in NJ. |

If Bill Shea was instrumental in harping the Dodgers in NYC then maybe they would have name the park after him otherwise you’re correct it would not have been called Shea. |
