I thought Britain had qualified for the 2007 World Cup with their performance in the European Championship, but I see Italy listed as a participant instead. Did Britain withdraw or was I mistaken about their having qualified?

If I am well informed, the qualification is always two years in front. That means that the UK will participates in 2009's World Championship.

The 2006 COPABE Olympic Qualifier held in Havana also served as the COPABE WC qualifier. The top six teams qualified for Taiwan: USA, Cuba, Mexico, Canada, Venezuela and Panama. Same teams plus Nicaragua (7th in Havana) qualified for the Pan Am GamesOriginally Posted by Yankeebiscuitfan

I guess MLBers would rather take a break after a long season then play in this, ohhhh well. I was wondering is there anywhere on the internet that will stream these games because I wanna watch the Canadian games.

Wow exactly what I was hoping to hear. Is that broadcast in French or English because my oral French skills are terrible!!

Just like watching soccer in Spanish...if you know the game, the PBP language is inconsequential.

Is Thailand confirmed to be China's replacement for the World Cup?
Boy, if they put on a decent performance (although they might get blown up by 32 runs by Cuba, etc.) they going to be a serious threat to the Philippines for the SEA Games competition, like thjat 8-1 they did the last Asian Games.
Who the hell is Stan Papi
Thailand has been confirmed; if you look at the schedule on the IBAF site, you will see Thailand instead of China.
Supposedly China pulled out so they can concentrate on the 2008 Olympics; in reality they did not want to take part in anything played on Taiwan. Last year's non-appearance in the Intercontinental Cup was an indication of that.

I only wish that somebody from my Red Sox had been chosen.
I've seen Outman pitch for Clearwater and I was impressed.
But as usual, it isn't to see who will win; the real competition is to see who finishes 2nd behind Cuba
Registered User
This USA team can win too.
Registered User
Probably the reason why we got the nod in Taiwan and where kicked in the curve by Cuba, Korea, etc. by 30-plus runs.
It would be a good exposure for Thailand especially their pitcher (I forgot the name) who seems to be doing well in Japanese collegiate ball.
Who the hell is Stan Papi
Too bad you guys couldn't get Benny Agbayani for the IC
Any of your guys play any college ball in the US?
Registered User
All players are homegrown blame it on our national federation though they just lack the program to improve the sport. I remember one tune-up game, they let the 15-20 level kids play the national team.
I believe there are some Fil-Am players in the college level but they won't recruit them to play here.
As for Benny, I love his stint with the Mets in 2000 but he won't be enough for us to compete. Maybe in the SEA Games he will hit some four-baggers, but not in the Baseball or Asia Cup because if our pitching is lousy on the international level it's useless, our semi-pro league throws a lot of wild pitches although some are good.

Hey, he played for MY boys as well
Registered User
Nope. He's not playing for us sorry I didn't mention but IF he eventually play for us he would be a big boost on the offense.

I thought they passed on BWC due to the conflicting schedule with the Konami Cup. It might better competition, but there aren't enough games [3] in the Asia Series for it to be beneficial.

Thanks goodness that Holland's 10-1 was only a practice game.
