Expos documentary: David Samson realizes he’s the villain of the piece

Do you feel like getting a little angry?

David Samson, who is hated by Quebec ball fans (and with good reason), will, as you may know, be in the documentary about the end of Expos history. We're talking about “Who Killed the Montreal Expos?” which will be released on Netflix next month.

And he'd missed something important.

As it turns out, the former high flyer for the Montreal Expos and Miami Marlins (who haven't exactly been healthy since his time there, either) didn't know he was the villain in Expos history.

He got a call to take part in an Expos documentary and didn't think too much of it. He answered the Netflix team's questions for nine hours.

And it was when he saw the documentary's title this week that he realized he'd made a mistake.

He really did say that it was when he heard the documentary was called “Who Killed the Montreal Expos” that he understood everything. It prompted him to call his agent, his lawyer and his children to tell them he'd made a mistake.

Did he call Jeffrey Loria, another culprit in the Expos' demise? History doesn't say.

The fact that he didn't realize he was the villain in the Expos story and didn't light up after nine hours of questions about the club's demise tells us how out of touch he is with reality.

He could have asked us and we'd have told him that he's a big part of the answer to the question posed in the documentary's title. We talked about it this week on the Passion MLB podcast.

Big Gallop and Little Trot aren't the most popular people in Expos history, and now Samson has added even more fuel to the fire.

Not strong, Chief…
