PROFILE |
 |
The Toronto Blue Jays Baseball Club gives Canadians a chance to squawk, squawk, squawk for the home team. Sadly, however, in the years since the Blue Jays' back-to-back World Series wins in 1992 and 1993, fans in the Great White North have had to search a little harder for a reason to cheer. The club started as an expansion team in 1977 and plays its home games in Toronto's retractable-roofed SkyDome. Formerly owned by beer maker John Labatt, in 1995 the team became part of Belgian brewing company Interbrew. Rogers Communications (Canada's #1 cable television and wireless phone company) paid $112 million for an 80% stake of the Blue Jays in 2000, announcing future plans to broadcast games over cellular phones.
