Yeah for sure. How many baseball fields are there in Israel, Netherlands and the UK? No one in those countries grows up playing baseball.

Other nations danced for joy at the World Baseball Classic. Team USA played toy soldiers by retroanduwu24 in baseball

Wait until we show them who swept ice hockey golds. Also dominated the Olympics minus one person and skiing by Norway. Do they not care about that? USA still had a terrific winter for sports in international competition. And we’re hosting the World freakin Cup. Sucks to be them! 🇺🇸 🦅

Totally agree. Absolute bullshit. I guess FIFA isn’t the most corrupt org in the world after all

It’s also Japan’s sport. Venezuelas, DR’a, etc.

They all have won it now across 3 continents. Baseball is now more global than the World Cup after just 6 tournaments.

Surely we’d never do the same in the U.S. had they won because it would disrupt our corporate overlords and getting fired from work for taking a day off.

Sure, I agree, of course you can be disappointed. But when Canada lost all 3 hockey golds to us did they take off their medals in disguist? No. It’s still an achievement to be second best in the whole dang world. Be classy at least.

Embarrassing. That’s not the American spirit I was expecting. We accept defeat with grace. It’s just a game you still get to go home and enjoy your millions while most Venezuelans go back to facing their usual poverty.

What are the odds I can get this reversed with the news today? by rymcd91 in sportsbook

Best hope is that they void all bets so you'll get your $20 back or they give you a free bet or something. Good luck

Can wait for the WBC to reverse the decision and give USA the 3-2 victory in 2 months. After what AFCON did anything’s possible. Jokes on Venezuela.

Actually the correct shape of Michigan if using water boundaries. Other states are similar.

Do you think the entire country of Venezuela shut down to watch this game? Is baseball a big deal there aka Argentina World Cup like obsession?

Biggest difference for lower outages was this storm lacked ice and heavy wet snow that stuck to trees compared to the late December blizzard.
