Not a bad crowd at Marlins Park tonight.

Probably beats last year's average for the Fish.

Just think if Cuba were playing Team USA instead of Puerto Rico. Wait. I know why they sent them to Tokyo - they wanted to avoid any riots. The Dutch just eliminated them.

WTF? Cuba, Venezuela and Mexico eliminated? Italy and The Netherlands advance? Something is wrong here.

I really don't find this thread that funny. A lot of stereotype humor implied here.
