Montreal Expos Collection Running Thread

nflfans4ever · 05-01-2015, 02:27 PM

Hey guys !
Being from Montreal I grew up as a fan of the Montreal Expos.
Over the last few years I bought a couple of cards not too many but now I have decided to start a true Collection about my first love with baseball the Expos

Was a big fan of Vladimir Guerrero,in fact,to this day he is still my favorite athlete even if he is retired.
I truly miss the Expos and I hope one day they will be back in Montreal.
I will update this thread as soon as I receive a new card.
Thanks !

They were so stacked that year. It's a shame. I was rooting for them hard.

When I first got into baseball, I took a liking to Raines, Dawson and Wallach. I thought they were awesome together.
