El Fidel de Underdog

Hmm, this World Baseball Classic is interesting. I've been watching it a little bit and the Cubans have been the real underdogs. Yeah, the country that we Americans use to vehemently root against, along with the other communist-bloc countries, are the team people are drawn to. Kinda weird how things change. They lost the final last night to Japan. But here's the real kicker. The combined rosters of both teams contained only two major league baseball players. All the other major league stars were on teams eliminated earlier. This is like having a world basketball championship and the final game only having two NBA players. Come October, when some team is celebrating their World Series victory, should it maybe just be called an "American" Series victory? How about a true World Series against our team and the winner of the World Baseball classic? The New York Yankees traveling to Havana or Tokyo. I'd watch that.
