  • Why not build indoor baseball stadium if its to cold,when did they leave?

  • @tean2269 they didn't leave. They were kidnapped, hijacked, abducted, sold, swindled by Claude Brochu, Jeffrey Loria, Bud Selig + all of MLB owners, Province of Quebec not caring and a host of shady businessmen and their tactics. The fans were betrayed, no TV and French radio broadcast, no Sept. callup during the wildcard race(yes, MLB owners wanted to save $ by nixing Sept. callups). Too much drama to explain in just one setting. Oh, and Canada doesn't build sports stadiums...its true.

  • This was fantastic.  So many great memories. So glad Dave Van Horne made the Hall of Fame this year. Loved him with the Duke! (Across Canada, of course!)

  • makes me cry. I was at vlad's last game and cried my eyes out. I was 6. Come back Spos! RIP Kid :(

  • wow, just the compilation of images and Dave Van Horne's voice makes me want to cry.

  • Need to put this tune on Itunes

  • "Sring Time Blues", you better believe it.

    i miss it so badly.

  • Contraction-The biggest bunch of bullshit MLB has ever come up with...

  • Man I miss the Expos.

  • @BSphar my summers are not the same without them...going out to the Big O to catch a ballgame....every year at this time of year with spring training coming soon, its tough...i hope we get em back someday!

  • Is that RDS's David Arsenault at 2:24 with the horn?

  • RIP Kid. I remember being a kid and cheering for the 93 and 94 Montreal Expos. What an exciting time, I'm talking about pretty much first to third year players playing their hearts out with speed, pitching and defense.

    Pretty sad free agency ravaged these teams but man were they ever good 

  • This ones for the Kid.

  • 1:22 , is that Valentine or Dawson making that unbelievable play at the plate?

  • R.I.P. Garey Carter

  • Gary, je t'ai connu à peine au début des années 1990, mais je sais que tu étais tout un joueur. Tu es le plus grand joueur que les Expos ont connus.

    Il faudrait instauré un hommage pour ce grand montréalais d'adoption!

  • Awesome song n video!!!!!

  • God Bless Gary Carter!

  • RIP kid forever an expo

  • RIP Gary Carter

  • As a Phillies fan I miss the Exops. You guys miss your team but DC can't take away your memories

  • Fuck you Loria.

    Fuck you Selig.

    And fuck you Major League Baseball.

  • where can I buy this song? Love it!

  • @habsfan012314 I don't even think you have to buy it. It's available for download, you just gotta find it. The link used to be posted on here, but it seems to have disappeared.

  • Steve Rodgers was on the show ''le match'' on tva sports. A long interview when he talk about the rumors on mlb return in Montreal. He believe on expos comeback and he think Montreal his on top of the list for the next expansion. Steve Rodgers work the mlb players association now so i think it's serious when he say its serious the rumor and its true thaht A group of solid businessman work to bring back mlb baseball in Montreal. You can watch this interview on tva sports web site.

  • I miss the 'Spos... I remember how heartbroken my dad was when they moved. Wish we could get them back somehow.

  • Wow. Simply wow. From a Mariners fan out here in the American Leauge, I have much respect for the people that put this video together. You are true fans. I feel like I got a brief Expos lesson. Plus the song rocked too.

  • I'm not an Expos fan, but I do miss having a team in MTL. I loved Pedro and Larry Walker. I feel for Expos fans that lost their team. Too bad there weren't enough of you.

  • @lildun34 There were. There was a long sustained campaign to drive the team into the ground.

  • The Expos were my 2nd favorite team growing up as I watched them vs my Mets. This song is awesome; it flooded memories right back of when i was a teenager. Thank you so much for this great song.

  • I'm a Braves fan, but I miss having the Expos in our division. I think Washington should have gotten a team, but Montreal should have stayed. Then they should of added one more like say New Orleans or Portland or Indianapolis, so there would be 32 teams.

  • I thought you canucks only liked hockey and that's why all the other sports up there fizzled away. I mean I know you still have the CFL, Blue Jays, Impact, etc but be honest now, how many of you really go to see that?

  • Buy the dodgers someoene! Move em to MTL! I don't care abput the nationals. I'm stil an Expos fan. Like my post if you are too! :) go expos!

  • guess who's under investigation!!!

  • @jmar28a he has always been a sneeky little prick!

  • Rogers Centre, Toronto, Juin 11-13, 2012: Les Nationals de Washington sera de retour au Canada pour la première fois depuis notre Expos gauche. Permet de vendre les trois matchs pour montrer au monde que les Expos ont les meilleurs fans dans l'ensemble de baseball! Nous pouvons faire cela! Copiez et collez ce message sur chaque vidéo expos et partager avec vos amis sur Facebook et Twitter!

  • Rogers Centre, Toronto, June 11-13, 2012: The Washington Nationals will be returning to Canada for the first time since our Expos left. Lets sell out all three games to show the world that the Expos have the best fans in all of baseball! We can do this! Copy and paste this message on every expos video and share with your friends on Facebook and Twitter!

  • I was 10 years old in 1994. I remember being glued to RDS that summer. The Expos gave me a reason to learn French - something formal education never did. This song tears at my heart. Thank you for making it. Let's bring them back!!

  • I'm an A's fan, but I got mad respect for the Expos. Hope one day the team will be revived and maybe A's and Expos will meet in a World Series matchup. I have a dream.

  • Join the expos nation on facebook!! Lol MontreralExposForever i think I cry all the tears of my body for the expos. I miss them so much. Joignez vous à la expos nation sur facebook pour perpétuer la mémoire des expos et envoyer le signal aux investisseurs que nous serons la pour les appuyer. Montreal Expos the city need you comeback home!

  • i've read different interviews about what it will take to bring baseball back to Montreal. it would take about 500 million for a team and another 500 million for a new stadium.

  • one word : wow!

  • Blue Monday 30 years today never forget

  • 30 years ago to this day = blue monday :((

  • The Vancouver Grizzlies and Montreal Expos need to be brought back!

  • Expos por la vie!!!! Back in 04 i was soo sadd even if i barley knew who the expos were. I wish theyd stayed

  • Wow. Thank you for such a cool song. I have to copy it so I can listen to it more often. It evokes so much emotion!

  • Le 11 juin 2012 rassemblement des fans des expos au rogers center de Toronto pour démontrer au baseball majeur notre intérêt pour le retour des expos.Venez en grand nombre c'est le temps d'agir.

    June 11 2012 at Toronto roger center we try to fill the stadium with expos fans. Join the expos nation if u are a real EXPOS!! EXPOS WE MISS U, WE NEED U

  • @Vinzzz27 Is this an organized outing? If so, is there a website or Facebook page? Please give us details.

  • @MontrealExposForever search " Montreal Expos on facebook and look back in the history, and yes it will be organized

  • @ryan48888 Thanks for the info, Ryan. If it happens, I'll clad myself in Expos gear and drag my wife on this road trip. The real challenge, though, will be to not cry like a baby.

  • Comment removed

  • @Vinzzz27 I'm there for all three games! The Expos will have a presence for that series!

  • @Vinzzz27 Why in Toronto?

  • There are alot of good videos on Youtube. Though, this is the one I raped the replay button the most.

  • Fantastic video!! I teared up big time. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

  • i will resurrect the expos by saving enough money to buy a new team.

    i will also finance a new downtown multipurpose stadium with a retractable roof. the stadium will also serve as a complete entertainment venue year round complete with shops!

    opening day will have a video montage of the history of the team complete with fireworks and a laser light show using the team colors.

    if this sounds good to everyone, let me know, and i'll get to work and make it happen because i'm all about results.

  • @jmar28a buy the dodgers

  • @jmar28a Of course once this happens i would put them in the American League because of the natural rivalry between the NEW Expos and the Blue Jays as well as the rivalry with BOSTON. and that's not even including the Yankees!!! we can possibly sell out at least 20 games from the get go!!! it's one of the best ways to ensure that the NEW Expos stay competitive at the gate. if they don't at least do that the NEW expos will be in jeopardy being shut down. thumbs up and holla if you agree!!

  • @jmar28a Are you actually that rich lol? Honestly though man do it, i really think the people of Montreal would support it this time around especially of we have a good organization. If i were rich, i'd definitely spend as much as I can to help buy a team

  • @jmar28a I am behind you 100%. I hope one day to have money to invest. It is my dream to bring them back.

    Rest in Peace Gary Carter

  • i hope to see the day where there will once again be "OPENING DAY IN MONTREAL"

  • I wore my Expos gear at a game down in the States last week and I was surprised at how many cheers and thumbs up I received. The people love the Expos.

  • Very touching. I loved every minute of that tribute!

  • @Orangesuk. Thanks. I don't remember that one.

  • In answer to questions below:

    - Scoop is Al Oliver.

    - The call they got wrong is probably Vlad's last at bat when he struck out -- I believe on a check swing -- on his last at-bat, with his last chance to get the 40th homer. I remember being furious, so the call was obviously wrong!

  • @moffman17 The call they got wrong was ruling Vlad's HR a Ground Rule double... robbing him of a 40/40 season...

  • @moffman17 Wrong, The call they got wrong was a BOMB he hit, that they called a ground rule double or some bull shit

  • @matj177 : Gotcha. Thanks for the clarification!

  • Wait at the end they mention "Scoop" who is that?

  • Incredible work!! Thanks!!!

  • Kid Carter is experiencing blood clots again. Keep him in your thoughts. "This ones for The Kid".

  • Expos, keep believing!

  • Can someone please remind me of what "the call they got wrong" was... I remember all the other things mentioned in the video... this one is escaping me.

  • Comment removed

  • Great Job! This video is tremendous!

  • 'Spos will be back one day!!!

  • Love you, Annakin, Love Baseball, want to buy your music! WOW you knock this granny's socks off!

  • BRING THE EXPOS BACK

  • As a kid I would spend my weekends at the Big O. Sometimes we wouldn't even watch the game, but run around the building just having a blast. Baseball caught me before hockey too. 1994 was the year. I love that Pedro has this video on his phone and I'm willing to bet that it's been played in almost every dugout in the league.

  • great video as usual, you should use some your contacts and send this video some of the old players, i think they would really appreciate it!! how come no mentionof spike owen!! lol :)

  • Sign the petition to bring back the Expos

  • awwww man I still remember going to games with dad... I still got youppi in his expos jersey...

  • NATS!

  • Merci beaucoup pour ton vidéo il est incroyable j'en ai des frissons et les larmes aux yeux. Rodeger Brulotte a dit que investisseurs seraient tres interessé a ramené un club de la mlb a mtl ca me fait rever j'ai de la misere a dormir depuis 5 jours lol. Montreal expos forever in my heart

  • Nice but you should've given me credit for the first part of your video. Not cool dude.

  • Dude, I got goose bumps watching this. I loved it!

    Expo fan for life bro!

    Let's keep our fingers crossed for the near future.

  • Former Expos voice Rodger Brulotte revealed last week that a group of serious investors is already working on trying to bring a team back to Montreal. Who knows? Maybe by 2020, Nos Amours will be playing in a downtown stadium.

    That's why I'm an Expo forever. :)

  • AWESOME job, very well done! Thanks for bringing all these positive memories from when I was a kid. I remember well the time when my dad used to bring me and my brother to the big ''O' also and it was cheap! When I was a little boy, my dream was to catch a ball from during the game. My wish almost came through, I had a baseball in my little hand and there was this unknown adult (a pure idiot) who stoled it from me! Nevertheless, these times were cool! Thanks for your hard work. Cheers!

  • Still get teary about 1:53 when you compare the pics of you, your bro and your dad at the last game with the pics from when you were kids. Hard to believe the Expos are almost seven years gone now.

  • Have we forgotten Tim Raines, Tim Wallach and Steve Rogers?

  • @Jiltedin2007 If you mean in the song, then you're an idiot. All three of those guys are mentioned.

  • @LsWeez Maybe you can please enlighten me on who is who because all I am hearing is nicknames on this song. And besides I haven't seen Tim Wallach or Tim Raines on this video. And the only time I saw Steve Rogers is on this video was when he was "Serving it up" for Rick Monday.

  • @Jiltedin2007 Eli @ 1:35, Rock @ 2:15 (everytime the chorus comes up)

  • @Jiltedin2007 have you watched the video? "Rock" Raines is mentioned in every single chorus. Wallach is at the beginning of the second verse. His nick name is Eli. Rogers ("sigh') is dropped in the role call plus shown when they won the division.

    You can be quiet now.

  • This song is sick. Here's hoping Montreal gets an expansion, or the Pirates or Rays or something. From a White Sox fan

  • @MikeinPurple Let's keep the Pirates in Pittsburgh, too much history there.  Let's take the Rays out of Tampa, they have a hard enough time putting people in the stadium in the mist of a pennant run. O's fan.

  • @ONTheRopesShow I guess you're right. The problem in Pittsburgh is more about ownership being unwilling to put major league players on the field. But yeah, it's sad how few people have been at the Trop since '08. Though it is a pretty terrible stadium.

  • @MikeinPurple Very true about Pittsburgh, but its nice to see them having a good year so far. Hopefully they can keep it going, Pittsburgh deserves a winning ballclub.

  • @annakinslayd tsn. ca/ story/ ?id=371313

  • Interesting article on CBC about baseball in Montreal.

    Our city CAN support the Expos. Now we just need the fans to step up and demand it, like Winnipeggers did for their Jets!

  • Why did the expos don't want to have s team they would up make it all the way I heard stories about them I saw the Gideon it goo great job but the expos should come back as a team they we're one of the beast team

  • @INOMUSICfyi Must have sucked losing to us in the original World Baseball Classic eh?

  • GARY CARTER, PLEASE GET BETTER, MONTREAL LOVES YOU!

  • I need to stop watching this. My 4 year old wants to know why I am always crying when I watch this.

  • @walsy37

    Keep the faith, friend. I genuinely believe that the Expos will be back in Montreal by 2020 --- or whenever that heartless, corrupt fuck Bud Selig retires. Montrealers love and miss this team. They realize what they lost, which is why you see more people walking around in Expos gear today than you did throughout the 80s and 90s.

    We just need a passionate owner like the Bronfmans or Molsons to step up for their city.

  • @INOMUSICfyi Yeah, tell that to Joey Votto, 2010 NL MVP.

    Then again, don't let facts get in the way of your bigotry.

  • @MontrealExposForever And let's not forget Jusin Morneau, the 2006 AL MVP.

  • Dear friends: brought tears to my eyes!!! great video, thanks for creating it.. Long live the Expos and its fans!

  • Just watched the end of the F1 race & our dear Mayor Tremblay was all smiles as he stood in front of the podium. Yeah, smile Tremblay, the wimpiest mayor in Montreal's history, who did absolutely nothing to save the Expos. Everything to save a 3 hour race - zero for 81 home games. Smile at the empty husk of a stadium in your east end, smile at your cops shooting innocent people, smile at the destruction of baseball history in a city that had Jackie Robinson & the Royals right here. Shameful !

  • Can't believe how much I weep when I watch this.

  • Winnipeg got their Jets back.

    We need someone to step up here in Quebec so we can bring our Expos home.

    Montreal lost the team once; we wouldn't let go of them again.

  • This one's for the Kid....

  • You got no one but yourselves to blame Montreal! That's what you get when you don't support your team. Baseball in Montreal? WHAT A JOKE!!!

    Oh by the way, thank you for Pedro Martinez. We had some good years.

  • @Jiltedin2007 Almost as big of a joke as blaming LeBron James for ditching Cleveland, eh?

  • @MontrealExposForever LeBron is a Jerk! He is only out for himself.

  • @Jiltedin2007 you ask spaceman lee if he thinks that's true. we were top of the world in 94 and everyone knows it

  • @alex20wild Yeah, too bad that baseball was on strike that year.

  • Amazing video. Growing up as a Braves fan, I was always fascinated by the Expos. I loved their name and uniforms, and for some reason, I thought it was SO COOL that Al Oliver wore the number 0 on his jersey (something very unusual in any sport back then). I even got my dad to buy me an Expos hat, while at a Braves game one time. All the players honored in this tribute were incredible, a few of them even played for the Braves (Nixon, Grissom, Big Cat, etc.) I miss the Expos too :(

  • Great work....love it...:)

  • Meant to write "was".......

  • One other thing--I wish that this song wad available on iTunes.....

  • @imsirota1965 For your information Annakin as the song available for free over at Reverbnation

  • This video brings tears to my eyes, all the more so given the horrible news about Gary Carter......

  • @imsirota1965 My thoughts are about the same as Ian Sirota's

  • How can you dislike this?!? 6 peoples lives must really suck.

  • My thoughts and love are all aimed toward Gary Carter and his family right now. A true giant of an influence on my life. Good luck, Kid.

  • @annakinslayd : Well said. Good Luck Kid.

  • 6 folks are nuts!

  • Vive les Expos!

  • I miss this sooo much :(
