Call your championship title the World Series.
Don’t invite the rest of the world.
I saw comments unironically saying last year was a true “world” series because the Blue Jays were in it.
A substantial number of baseball’s all-stars, in Major League Baseball, are not from the US. It’s a popular enough sport elsewhere, but the best players tend to want to come to the US to play. About 25% of the players are foreign.
Same with basketball, which hasn’t had an American MVP in 8 years. About 30% of the players are foreign.
Sure but that’s true of a lot of football leagues too.
Most other leagues don’t call their own championships/titles the “world” anything. American Major League Baseball explicitly calls its finals the World Series. The American NBA calls its winners the World Champions.
For those two sports and leagues, it’s a pretty solid argument that those are the best players and coaches in the world at those sports, where the American leagues attract the absolute best talent.
It’s harder to make that argument for soccer leagues around the world, though.
Excuse me! Canada won it last year.
Once we annex the U.S we’ll have to change the name.
The Australian version is: Invent new sport. No one else in the world is insane enough to play it.
Personally I would like to participate in the motorcycle chariot race, but then again I’m a Californian Redneck so basically an Aussie alternative.
We have Australian Football leagues in many countries. USA vs Canada is in a couple of weeks in British Columbia.
The meme doesn’t make sense. If someone invents and wins at a sport that no one else cares about, that doesn’t sound like chad vibes. That sounds like basement dweller vibes.
I took it as sarcasm.
Invent a sport
Export it to all your colonies
Have them all kick your arse at it every season
#winning
Edit: cricket, guys. I’m very clearly talking about cricket
Kick this sheep’s bladder around or I’ll punch your wives again!
More like Spanish and Portuguese former colonies. Since USA, Canada, Australia, India, etc not that great at football ⚽
India is beating UK at cricket.
And Australia was beating them before that.
We beat them so bad, they declared Cricket dead, burned a cricket ball and now we compete for the ashes of that ball.
Good thing i’m taking about cricket then. You know, the one actually played by india, australia, pakistan, west indies, new zealand. Etc
Call them both football, even though one is obviously hand egg.
… well, there is that one brief moment they use a foot /s
There are actually two. Maybe three, if you separate FGs and extra points.
4: Kickoff, field goal, extra point, and punt.
Though kickoff is the only one where an entire legal play can occur without hands touching the ball, since the others require a deep snap from the center.
Which championship? Which sport? Which country in the UK?
All of them. All of them. All of them.
Hot take from an American: American football actually fucking sucks big time and is incredibly MAGA coded these days.
People supporting a sport that 90% of former professional players acquire CTE are fucking morons. Especially given how many young kids get into this shit in highschool, and get CTE and become absolute pieces of shit because of it.
Its baffling this sport and sports with similar problems are still popular, let alone the most popular ones in the US.
All I remember about American Football was how fucking slow the pace of the game was compared to literally every other mainstream sport. It was definitely designed for a fat ass country.
It’s a game of strategy and formations, like chess or military drills, instead of just kicking a ball around for 90 minutes.
Yeah I keep forgetting only the games of chess, military drills?? And American football has strategy and formations, my bad.
Football has a ton of strategy and formations. Don’t watch the ball for a half and just look at the backline and the movement in the mid field.
Not disagreeing with you on American football either. I love watching post game tape.

That’s actually so fucked up. How can you encourage or even allow children to join activities that you know is going to injure them permanently?
It’s a training ground for the minds of future voters in that country

Football or football?
Futbol or “mURIca fIRsT rOUnD up ThE mEXiCanS and mOoohAmEDs haNG thE cOMMie cLINtoNs cos pIZzaGaTe I aiNt no FAGGit”
I’m calling you an ambulance.
In the US, that’s a serious threat. I had a friend call an ambulance for their roommate, and that roommate was in debt for at least the next 5 years.
The name football comes from England I thought, where they called any game played on foot football as opposed to being on horseback or some shit. So rugby was football. The U.S. version of such also was known as football. Hence why Australia also calls Australian Rugby, football or footy.
Meaning that in spirit, baseball and basketball are also football, lolol
In Australia we play footy, and we also play a different game called rugby
There’s two rugby codes and I point it out because we always have to clarify with Victorians which one they mean
In Adelaide you could be playing footy (AFL), footy (A League - Soccer) or footy (NRL - Rugby League - least popular since the NRL shafted the Rams like 30 years ago)
Well atleast we had a oddly intense game with the french
We’ll only leave the country if we get to fight the French.
*Or stop other people from fighting the French, since they’re England’s to fight.
