Message #4525 of 6634  *NEW* To :   All From :   Jaydawg   Subject :   The Yankees, Red Sox, and possibly the Dodgers---if the Yanks pull out--- could play exhibition games in China next spring and open the '08 season in Japan Date :   5/06/07, 9:55pm This could actually be beneficial to MLB. Playing a few preseason games in a country with over a billion people could take the league to a whole new level. But, if the rumors are true and the Yanks pull out of it, then we could see an A.L. and N.L. team going head-to-head to open a season for the first time ever. Who knows? There could be a REAL World Series on the horizon in the future with the best U.S. team--probably the Yanks-- against the best team in Japan. I'd probably be reluctant to root for the Yankees under that scenario, though I wouldn't hesitate to cheer them on if they play the Tokyo Giants... You know how I feel about ballclubs with Halloween costumes used as uniforms. Of course, Dr. Rub would root against the Yanks regardless of who they play. • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #4525 • Back to Topics 2122 reads 1767 clickthrough(s) You cannot start a topic in the Headlines or Classifieds area... if you want to post a new message, try one of our other message areas!
