I'm far from a baseball head, but this competition looks interesting. All the Latin & Japanese cats are going to get some extra exposure.

[no thread hijack] Batmon, you really 3 blocks from Yankee stadium? I use to go to The Feeding Tree a lot, the curried goat there is unfuckwitable![/no thread hijack]
I'm on the Concourse. Is that the place across from the supermarket? We just call it the Jamacian place.
etc. wouldn't be that much longer.
let's face it, nationalism + sports = soccer
return to world cup thread.
Yeah, but the prices are crazy in that piece. The Irish moss drink =
Some US players opted to play for the international teams instead, for example Mike Piazza is playing for Italy even though he was born and raised in America. I don't know if that's because he probably wouldn't start on the US team or what.
The Dominican lineup is stacked.
No doubt. The hood is going to be real interesting when this jumps off.
If Cuba plays, the media will have a field day.
Didn't the US regularly play Caribbean teams until they got served one time?
World fucking Series... gimme a break.
If this "international" format works, we'll see who is that Schitt.
I hope they let Cuba play....otherwise the whole "World Champion" thing is bogus.
They'd let Cuba play, but the problem is players end up defecting to leave the island and Fidel isn't down with that, so its always an issue. They play in the Caribbean series every time.
Real contenders: DR, PR, USA, Japan, Venezuela, Mexico (maybe), Cuba (maybe), everyone else will be smashed.
Italy has a team? Watching them will be like watching a Felini film.
did anybody check out the merchandise on that link?... china's hats are pretty fresh... i wish the USA one was better
