giffo - the World Series Baseball goes back to the early 1900's when Baseball was sponsored by the US newspaper called "The World" and hence names World Series - and this tradition has continued, thats all, its not an american arrogant view that their baseball is the best in the world....if you doubt me look it up

Must admit to watching 10-15 minutes of this myself.

Teams had coaches etc.


The coverage reminded me VERY much of Espn 8's coverage of "Dodgeball". :lol:

Funny watching the blokes cop it on the scone and not even flinch ... WTF??

Great game to play but I gotta admit, if I went off to war I'd be home in a box the next day :oops:
