murraysovereign Posted March 8, 2006 Posted March 8, 2006 So there's some sort of baseball world tournament on the telly right now. Not the "World Series" which is an American-only event, mostly. This one seems to involve teams from all over the world, actually. Anyhow, there's a game in progress right now, and mid-way through the 4th inning the team from "USA! USA! USA!" is down 7-0 to a team from some place called "Canada". WTF?? Canadians don't play baseball, unless there's alcohol involved - most of us think (rightly) that it's a stupid, pansy kind of game. Hell, there's no checking, no high-sticking or tripping, and on the few occasions they try to really mix it up, they fight like girls. We just don't see the point of it. So, why would we be beating a bunch of guys who live and breathe the game from childhood? And now the home-town fans (game's being played in Phoenix) are actually starting to boo the team from "USA! USA! USA!" You guys suck! Quote

G-spotter Posted March 8, 2006 Posted March 8, 2006 8-0 now 8-0 looks like some type of smiley, not a score. 8o) 8=D ;-0 (.)(.) Quote
murraysovereign Posted March 8, 2006 Author Posted March 8, 2006 Oops! Make that 8-0 in the 5th. Something called an "Inside the Park Home Run"? And now they're talking about something called "The Mercy Rule". What's that? Quote
curtveld Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Must be a really welcome break from reanalyzing your Olympic hockey breakdown. Quote
G-spotter Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 so the final was 8-6, looks like a hermaphrodite Quote
