    No, their season hasn't started yet. Its just that they start their preparation alot earlier and they have all started around December/January. BTW, Cuba's season is going on right now and they stopped the season so they can play in the WBC.

    Nevermind. While it was 6-2 when I posted that and it's now 6-4, Johnson just put in one of my Nats, Hanrihan, who wouldn't know the strike zone if it bit him in the ass.

    It is plain to me that the USA (or Davey Johnson) doesn't care about winning.

    So no comeback.

    And I'm reminded of something my late dear old granpappy used to tell me. If you aren't going to do something right, then don't do it.

    If the USA isn't gonna take this seriously, then why do it.

    I'll leave now.

    Aaaaagh! Jeter, you CREEP!

    Is it my imagination or is this WBC going to be decided by the teams who actually showed up and decided they wanted to field the ball??

    No, it looks like it's gonna be decided by two teams that practice as hard as they play and while I'm typing this the US have demonstrated an "interesting" take on baseball fundamentals, much like Venezuela last night. Ick! That was fugly.

    What does Jeter care? Despite being one of the worst hitters for USA in the tournament and committing an error he'll still get all the praise for how well his teammates hit because he's the captain

    You think Ozzie Guillen is gonna be out of baseball by 2013?? LOL, keep dreaming. He's got a ring, that'll buy him another decade easy with some team IF he ever gets fired from Chicago...
    My runs created per 27 posts (RC/27p) was 12.4 last year. I should've been MVP.
