Does anyone care?
One poster's "coin toss" theory will be put to the test with US facing a country like...Italy or Israel. Or Britain.
Aroldis Chapman on Team Britain and using like a distant relative's colonization of Jamaica for eligibility (or something like that). Bader using Jewish father (religion means country now?) to play for Team Israel.
I'll watch because "baseball" but it's fun to get a sneak peek at some of the pitchers at least. Pallante on Italy will be one to watch.

Yeah, I love this whole thing when I get to watch it. Especially the games played in Latin America. The distant relations used to justify team affiliations are silly, but whatever.

Re: WBC 2023 Thread
No way would any poster think a team will all MLB players vs a team with hardly any would be a coin toss.Big Amoco Sign wrote: ↑January 26 23, 11:19 amDoes anyone care?

Which is weird, because they do not use salt or pepper directly in their cuisine. Maybe he should start the 'red pepper flake hot oil' mime.
