Of course, but it's still a cool novelty, imo.

I thought it was a neat idea at first too. The format really got to me though. I'll probably go to the games again if they're here just because I like the game, but I wish they'd do something so that the superior teams actually have the chance to prove it.

I think it would probably be better if they just had four teams: Asia, US/Canada, Caribbean, and South America/Mexico.

It would be better if they started it earlier and then had it in a College World Series style double elimination format. A first round with 3 game series between the 16 teams, and then the 8 winners play a double elimination tournament. It would keep the sudden death excitement while still determining the best team.

Bumping this thread for Joba.
I'll be posting this whenever Joba Chamberlain does something awesome (which should be every time he pitches). I ordered one of those team t-shirts with the NY on the front and Chamberlain 62 on the back. I hope that by wearing I will gain some of his awesome. |

I don't have a problem with the Diamondbacks, and apparently no one else does because I can't find any anti-Diamondbacks images. You will have to settle for this dumb sock:

Obviously that picture Basilisk posted should be the Red Sawx logo. Go Yankees!

I shouldn't be too harsh I suppose. I'm a Yankees fan too. I'll cheer for them all year. I hope they win 120 games. It's so much more satisfying to watch them faceplant in the playoffs than the regular season. Losing the wildcard to Detroit or Cleveland would be so underwhelming  |

Joba Chamberlain is a terrorist and an islamo-fascist and an illegal immigrant
