I wish people would just fucking get it right for once.
Why don't you try getting it right!
The country is the United States of America ... U.S.A. That is why they are called Americans.
Mexicans and Canadians are not Americans ... they are North Americans (along with the U.S. Americans).

Peace....

And to counteract your point - why don't the US play baseball against Japan or Cuba? Fuck, even softball gets played on a global level by more than 3 countries.
Generally, the baseball teams on the US aren't just Americans. Fuck, they consist of the Japanese, Koreans, Mexicans, Cubans, South Americans, Puerto Ricans, Australians and Italians. The baseball teams in America are basically the best from all around and the prodigys of those listed and more so nationalities. It really is the best of the best.

And even if the Major League went against the Japan League or something of the sort, the Japan League would most likely be slaughtered.

um...maybe it would, but like you've just said, the Major League in US is made up of loads of different nationalities. the whole point of an international tournament is that you have to be a native of a country to represent them*. hence, all the japanese, mexicans, cubans etc from your league would be playing AGAINST you.

* excludes the Rupublic of Ireland's football team...

Anti-Moan has just conceded that currently the US women's soccer tem are world champions.

So there's one thing you guys do well.
