I guess I'll start something up here, for anyone who will be followuing this
How much press is being given to it in your country?
I was in Taiwan over the past week, and saw quite a bit of advertising there, for the broadcasts of the games (atleast the ones that Chinese Taipei will be in) |

It'll be Dominican Republic and the US in the final.
I'm actually quite excited for it, at first I wasn't in to it at all, but the closer it's been getting and the commercials and ads i've been seeing and hearing, just makes me wish baseball (and summer) was here already. |

I was into it before there were more pullouts than a $2 hooker. Vlad and Pedro out yesterday. C.C. Sabathia and Wagner for the U.S. It really cheapens it for me. Plus, a lot of guys are already biaching about not being game ready yet. Then A Fraud or something is gonna blow a knee and ruin my Yankee season and I'm gonna get pissed. Fantasy is cool but my team is most important.
I'll watch the big games. Dominican vs. USA still looks very interesting. But Dominican vs. Venezuela looks almost better. Great pitching of Venezuela vs. the hitting of the Dominicans. I wanted to see Ortiz, Tejada, Vlad, Soriano, PooHoles, Manny... oh well. The best lineup ever!! |

I wonder why the players can't just start their training and preparation a few weeks earlier.
Probably not the solution, but it seems it would help. |

in the first game, Korea beats Chinese Taipei (aka Taiwan), 2-0
Jae Seo, formerly of the Mets, now with the Dodgers, gets the win. |

| I think the US team is overrated. I really will be surprised if we make the finals. |
