Seeing that I am an Expo/National fan since Day 1 in 1969, I hope he goes in as an Expo. Some mis guided (Cubs fans) people think as a Cub. What do you guys think?

Looking for 1970 MLB Photostamps

Positive Transactions - tennesseebanker, Ahmanfan, Donruss, Colebear, CDsNuts, rbdjr1, Downtown1974, yankeeno7, drewsef, mnolan, mrbud60, msassin, RipublicaninMass, AkbarClone, rustywilly, lsutigers1973, julen23 and nam812, plus many others...
But seriously I think he will go in as a Cub. His best years were as a Cub but it's not an easy choice. If the Expos still existed I think he would go in as an Expo but with the franchise basically dead I say Cubs.

If I recall correctly, didn't they have issue with Boggs and Carter in the past (think Carter wanted to go in as a Met)

Alas, growing up a Cubs fan I was a huge Dawson fan... as a Cub that is... and I'd love to see him go in the HOF with a Cubs cap on. It's gonna be a tough decision, but even I have to believe the Expos would be the RIGHT decision!

That is correct; the HOF leadership determines what team each nominee represents.
This supposedly resulted from Dave Winfield reportedly accepting $1M and a job with the Padres, to go in as a Padre.

Very true, thanks to the concrete he played on at Le Stad Olympique
