Montreal games were NOT attended well and had no media contracts. Besides, it wasn't the Skins from Montreal. Could care less about the Wizards, I like College Bball better. Moves are based on Greedy Owners these days.
Everyone knew about the Expos. They weren't moved out in darkness in the middle of the night. As for Cleveland, they were well supported! I went to college 30 miles east of Cleveland. I remember watching playoff games on TV in a packed stadium, it was snowing, and a wind chill factor of 30 below. Obviously it wasn't due to lack of fan support or media support!
Cleveland was the same as Seattle with the sonics- the city refused to replace an old venue (their right) and the team responded by leaving (also their right)
