I've been entertained by the WBC this year. In watching the US annihilate Cuba, I am reminded of an old Cuban neighbor I had in DC 20 odd years ago. He once stated his dream of the regime falling and getting an MLB franchise based in Havana. I think about that often and really do hope it becomes possible one day.

USA getting walloped by team Italy is an abomination. They are in serious threat of not even advancing out of the pool. Embarrassing. All the other international teams taking this seriously but the Americans (and Harper in particular) just can't be bothered.Comment

I'm reading that USA was resting players on the mistaken belief that they had already advanced to the quarterfinals? That's bonkers if true.Originally posted by USUC View Post"...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."
