The new Washington DC baseball team

[Page Stephens]

Now that the Montréal Expos reside in DC does anyone out there remember the
old parody of  the saying about George Washington which read, "First in war.
First in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen" which went "First
in hearts. First in Peace and last in the American League"

A variant of this about the St, Louis Browns went as follows: "First in war.
First in booze. First in shoes and last in the American League."
