Cubs fans are just so much cooler, that's all, we can laugh at ourselves!:lol:January 03, 2004 at 02:48AM View BBCode
True. I laughed at Bartman. Bostonians would have killed him.January 03, 2004 at 03:17AM View BBCode
"World Series Champions." I hate that. It's so PC. It's "World Champions," dammit. Maybe I'm totally missing something, but it sounds like people say World "Series" Champions so they don't offend the rest of the world...since obviously it's not a "world" championship (that is, a championship that involves teams from around the world). But if any other country was up where we are with baseball, their players wouldn't be dying to come play in the major leagues. The fact that guys take less money, or RISK DEATH (Cuban players) to play here indictates to me that all these other leagues are minor leagues. So I say if you win it all in the USA, you're the champion of the world...not just the World Series.January 03, 2004 at 03:23AM View BBCode
i dont like pc, but i use world series champions and world champions interchangably. for football i usually use world champions instead of super bowl champions. same with basketball.January 03, 2004 at 03:30AM View BBCode
Basketball might have to call it the World Finals the way things are going. Has anyone else heard the talk about the long-term plans of the NBA? They're talking about making it a world league, with teams all over the globe, in their own division to compete with our original league. I hope so, it sounds so unbelievably cool!!January 03, 2004 at 03:34AM View BBCode
the travel is what makes putting teams outside of north america a problem. until we get faster planes (and it doesnt look like soon, concord is discontinued), or some other way, we will have 20 hour flights and all that, which gives a huge home team advantage. they could allieviate it with more days off and less games between divisions (european/american divisions), but it would still remain a big issue.January 03, 2004 at 06:02AM View BBCode
Gotta love the title "World Champions". Note how I put it on my signature.January 03, 2004 at 05:45PM View BBCode
with all the foreign players coming to the nba i think making it a world wide league would be great. that is if they can figure out travel.Pages: 1
