    So what do you guys think the USA needs to change to win this thing? The announcers must sound like they're whining to the rest of the world when they're talking about Davey Johnson being handcuffed as a manager when they're down 6-2 here. I think they have some reasonable points but at the same time I'd rather see some things fixed than hear the announcers talk about why the USA is struggling.

    Should the WBC run at a different time of year?
    Should the US use minor leaguers?
    Should the MLB managers take the handcuffs off?
    Take more steriods?

    Is that the 'U.S.A...U.S.A' chant?

    I'm sorry to say guys but that is almost lamer than our 'Aussie Aussie Aussie oi oi oi' chant.

    Both are embarrassing.

    And that's why Jeter should be DH'ing and Rollins at SS.

    oi oi oi

    Having Jeter as your shortstop is just painful. :(

    How about Dunn DHing, Jeter on the bench, Rollins at short, and someone else in RF? Oh well.

    I love the Ausie Ausie Ausie chant too. Joe Hachem is a badass poker player.

    U.S.A, U.S.A., U.S.A.!

    edit: damn Japs scored again.

    American Heroes don't strike out with runners on base to end the inning.

    Fair enough. But Jeter is a terrorist. Hell, he comes from a terrorist organization. One of his comrades flew a plane into a building! That has terrorist written all over it!

    I'll be at the final tomorrow night, should be a fun night of baseball with 2 Asian powers going at it. I would have liked to see the US but I was really hoping for Japan vs Korea and it appears barring a miracle that's what I'll get. BTW Japan or the US at a serious disadvantage tomorrow night.....

    I'm glad ESPN is capturing the many facial expressions of Derek Jeter. They should make a montage. Also, David Wright, wtf.

    BTW definately a pro Korea crowd in Dodger Stadium.... these people are insane. I've never seen or heard anything like the Korean fans in the 25+ years I've been watching baseball.
