Having confronted Dr. Dennis, Barry Laws, Jr., International Man Of Mystery,
exclaimed:
DW> Good Luck! We need more canadian teams, as we now seem to be going
DW> International in the 2 leagues.
BLJ> I say give teams to Calgary and Vancouver. They're both represented in
BLJ> Canadian football, NHL Hockey, and Vancouver has an NBA team. I wonder
BLJ> what their nicknames would be if they got MLB teams...maybe the
BLJ> Vancouver Valiants and the Calgary Mustangs (or Calgary Stampede).
Vancouver is the only market left in Canada that is large enough
to have a MLB franchise. Calgary's population is only about 700,000
with virtually no satellite communities to speak of. Vancouver in fact
is pursuing a MLB franchise. There is plan in works to convert BC Place
into retractable roof stadium which could also allow baseball to play
there. As for a nickname, I'm rather fond of their PCL name, the
Canadians....
