The "World Series" though is just teams from America and Canada isn't it? And Canada doesn't have its own independent league.
Now maybe there are the best but there's not even the pretext of a real international competition.
The "World Series" though is just teams from America and Canada isn't it? And Canada doesn't have its own independent league.In fairness, Baseball is every bit a world sport as rugby is. It's in the top 3 or 4 sports played and watched in the USA, Canada, Japan, Korea, Cuba, Domincan Republic, Mexico, Venezuala and quite a few other.
Incidentally, Ireland are ranked 50th in the World Baseball standings, higher then our football team !
I agree. There were no chokers on that Irish team.Ireland were the bounce of a ball and a fingertip away from winning that game. They didn't play their best game but New Zealand are not mugs. South Africa could easily have beaten Ireland as well. The games at this level are decided at such small margins. There was no shame in losing that match. At least unlike in other quarter finals, they turned up. No other Irish team would have gone 13-0 down and recovered like they did.
Sport is cruel and it seems fashionable these days to lable teams as chokers. This team are not chokers. They are able to go toe to toe against the very best teams in the world and win more often than they lose.
France didn't choke last night either....
Shame to see some of the players leave like this. Particulary Earls who I seriously admire.
I just know that England are win the bloody thing and THAT will make me cry!
Have a 15/1 consolation bet.I just know that England are win the bloody thing and THAT will make me cry!
The French don't travel well out of Paris apparently!What a way to open a season by giving the French a hiding in their own back yard. Let's hope they continue the season like this..
What price the U20s for a 3-in-a-row?PaddyPower have Ireland 2/9 (= over 80% likely) to win Six Nations after just one match
Nash was solid but he's no Mack Hansen. Joe McCarthy is a phenomenon.Calvin Nash and Big Joe giving stellar performances and they just fresh out of the box, so to speak. U20s & women's 7s doing well too. Young Gleeson is an amazing talent.
Crowley looks like he has the makings of a really superb out half.Another hurdle overcome . Two weeks rest before the Welsh come to have a go
I wouldn't dream of it .. only two games won so far.. ...Three big games to come.Nothing won yet; let’s not put a hex on them.
