Ooooooo unmatched is gonna be in trouble with the Canadians on this site... Nice knowing you.  In the space of a few hours I have just alienated all the baseball fans and all the Canadians. Maybe I should go hide under a bush for a while. |

I know I am going to get slapped for this, but how can you be world champions in a sport that is only played in one country? Ha! No problem! You won't get slapped for that by me, I understand. Good point! Though....I think I could make a case that if there were two teams in some vastly remote mountain village in the Himalayas that played some sport that only they played, one of them is going to end up being....THE WORLD CHAMPION of that sport. And I'd hope it was my team!! Ha ha! |

Did Toronto get moved into the USA? You mean Canada is not an American state? I had better brush up on my geography (just kidding...) Whoa.....dude.....(sits back, opens beer, waits for the Canadian replies....) ha ha ha! |

My self esteem just rose hugely, I am a World Champion Slappy Paws player (this is where you try to touch your dogs' paws and they try to lift them before you can touch them [it's pretty easy for them to know it's coming because one of the rules is you have to say "slappy paws" in a silly voice before reaching to touch a paw (usually they will play bow in front of you when they hear it because they enjoy the game)]

@helentishappy - well, that's just too damn adorable. Too bad my dog is the most evil, untrained dog on the planet!

And I'd not only root for you, I'd buy an "UNMATCHED WORLD CHAMPION" T-shirt and wear it with pride!! (it would be kind of cool if it was personally autographed....hint hint)  |

If anyone is a baseball - or any fan of sports - I recommend this website :http://www.theplayerstribune.com/sports/baseball/
It allows players to write articles to speak directly to the fans. Derek Jeter - The Hall of Fame Yankee superstar created it.

I can't really say I'm a fanatic. I was at the inaugural Blue Jays game. Called in to work saying I was ill. Then was interviewed on tv. Go figure. It snowed.

How about Colon hitting that home run? As a "not a MET fan" it was still fun to watch.
