What the hell is up with this WBC.  Aside from being a veritable pro-ballplayer injury factory, it also supplied a fairly freakish upset….the Dominican Republic (the ballplayer supplier of the universe) is beaten by The Netherlands…THE NETHERLANDS!  What sports are the Netherlands famous for?  The luge?

I think someone somewhere got this idea…hmm, in the off-season lets have this big baseball tournament, invite all these ballplayers from around the world…and not just any players, the best ones.  And then beat the holy hell out of ‘em, and finish up just in time to send their injured asses back for the start of baseball season…we’ll call it…the World Baseball Classic…

Oddly enough it seems some injuries don’t even happen during the game, but during the post game celebrations…take it easy there Youk!
