Here is a Sports Question

What date is known as "Blue Monday" for Montreal Expos fans?
(If you feel like it you can also answer why)

Sticky · 06-04-2003, 12:29 PM

Bones, what is wrong with my question?

Unknown Poster · 06-04-2003, 12:39 PM

Blue Monday:

Oct 19, 1981 : The day that will simply be remembered as "Blue Monday" by Expos' fans comes when Dodgers' outfielder Rick Monday crushes the Expos' hopes of a trip to the World Series with a game-winning, ninth-inning home run off Steve Rogers in the fifth and deciding game of the NL Championship Series at Olympic Stadium. The Dodgers capture the NLCS 3 games to 2 and will go on to beat the Yankees in the Fall Classic. For the third consecutive season, the Expos are eliminated by the eventual World Series Champions.

Had to look it up, is that cheating?

Sticky · 06-04-2003, 12:56 PM

I don't think it is cheating. referenced your source. You did not pretend that you knew the info yourself.

Besides, I think the point is to try and find the info.

Reese · 06-05-2003, 12:02 AM

The A-Teams cellphone number was 555-6162 Its the only number I found listed for the A-Team. I also came across a very interesting website that lists ALOT of fictional 555 numbers.
