I didn't mind it until I understood it. Their owner put his daughter's initials in the team logo. Ridiculous.

Charles Bronfman didn't have any children with the intials of ELB.  His two children were named Stephen and Claudine.  That story sounds like urban legend to me.

Well if it is an urban legend, and it just means EB for Expos Baseball, that changes how I feel about the logo.

I always thought it was just an oddly stylized X (well, except when I was like 7 and I thought it said ELB :lol: ).

The story I've always heard was that it was one big "M" for Montreal, with the red serif "e" for Expos and blue "b" for baseball.
