With all due respect to our athletes, it's hard to get into US Olympic baseball in the first place when our team is comprised of a handful of AA standouts then a rag-tag bunch of roster fillers that major league team's actually made available. Our nation's best-- HA! No major league talent, few current top prospects... our own nation doesn't care about it, why should we? [Then, further perpetuated by this BLASPHEMY]

PS-- still want to get up to Vancouver, BC one of these days.... some time when the snow is aplenty and I don't have random drug tests hanging over my head.


Great city been there many times when I was near Seattle. Tons of beaver.

Anyhow, I agree with that statement and it's a shame that basketball works out and baseball doesnt. It's the only major sport out of the three Olympic sports that does not bring the best of the best. I dont care about the season, take a break and stretch it out once every four years. Guys used to get deployed for war. The game goes on.



Even if they used MLB players, the US wouldnt compare/compete like they do in basketball. Do you realize how many foreign players are in MLB?

Yeah I would have never ever realized that unless you chimed in. Great point dude! I think they should come up with something call the World Baseball Classic too!

No shit there are a lot of foreigners. And I dont care if the US would not win, it would be great television to watch the games. Cuba, DR, Japan, PR, and Canada could develop some intense rivalries with each other and the US alike. A hell of a lot better than a team of college players and minor leaguers who wont see playing time this year.

Oh and I am glad the softball team lost. Those bitches were too cocky for their own good.
