Baseball is weird *world series* ???
 
Next game will be Florida vs New York right ???

WTF do they call it WORLD SERIES ??? This is not soccer, when all 5 continents play against each other.

Florida/NY, two US states,Can you explain why that,if you can. annoy:

American series perhaps? The world does not participate in it so its just a way of making a dinky little tournament sound bigger than it actually is.

Vance 10-17-2003 05:44 PM

We already have the American League, it would seem biased.

Well its stupid to call it "world series". If theyre gonna call it that then get world teams in on it, im sure theres more than just american baseball teams in the world, Im sure some of the japanese teams would fare pretty well.

Vance 10-17-2003 05:51 PM

People on the teams aren't all American, if you interveiw the Florida team like half of them are from Cuba....then on the Yankees you have Mariano Riviera who is from down there as well....so people from all over the world play in the MLB

ninty 10-17-2003 05:53 PM

Call it the North American Series because the jays might one day make it back to the playoffs.

Tystnad 10-17-2003 05:53 PM

Its still American teams..
Hell, that would be like calling the Italian or Spanish, hell, even the English soccer series for World Series, since many of the players in the teams arent from the country they represent in that specific league..

Vance 10-17-2003 05:54 PM

North American series sounds pretty gay.

Plus back in the 1900s when baseball was played here, and ONLY here, in the US, no one else played it, so it was justified to call it the World Series because the US baseball teams were the only baseball teams in the world. Tradition of the game phrohibited the changing of the series title.

Snuff 10-17-2003 08:51 PM

Does it really fookin matter what they call it? eek:

World cup is by FAR the biggest and most watched and popular tournament on the PLANET. Nothing comes even REMOTELY close to it in terms of popularity or anything else for that matter.

who cares about the rest of the world...all that matters to Canada is Canada and we don't care about soccer because they are pussies.

If David Beckham dies, maybe i'll watch the world cup.

Webb its understandable you may not like baseball because the sox get it handed to them but do you need to make a thread to bitch about it?
