The way I figure it, this coming event or series of games is an International Baseball Series or at least or best will one day be so recognized.
What do you think am I wrong headed on this thing called Classic?
Webster's pondering portrays a classic in this fashion: 1: a literary work of ancient Greece or Rome 2a: a work of enduring excellence; also: its author b:an authoritative source 3: a typical or perfect example 4: a traditional event(a football classic)
I'm sorry folks but by all established standards this World competition does not as of now rate being recognized nor reported with such a title at this time. Maybe in time, yes.
The next reported schedule for this world baseball competition is for the year 2009. There will be much wide spread anticipation of this next forthcoming event.
The World Classic as currently constituted must by all rights be an International Baseball Series sanctioned by the International Baseball Federation (IBAF) and created by Major League Baseball.
Worldwide this Baseball International Series will garner competition at a level of probable unprecedented hoopla and fanfare.
Competitive nature of the societies and the strong support comprising each competing nation or region of the world may rise to a level unparalled in the annals of the sport of baseball.
Rule regulations and spirit of fair play will be a closely watched and talked about subject. Within the context of multi-national competition disputes and close calls by the umpires will garner exploding pent up fever pitch outbursts.
Bring on the clashes and may the stoutest of the stout and the very best of the gold gloves and kings of the hitting grab the Championship Crown.
Growing the game of baseball around the globe is the primary objective of the World Classic. By expanding the competitive field of the 2013 tournament, we are demonstrating our commitment to this goal and reinforcing that the World Classic is the premier showcase of baseball around the globe,” said Major League Baseball Commissioner Allan H. (Bud) Selig. “The tournament is a unique experience for fans to witness the excitement of this great game and I encourage organizations around the world to bid for the chance to host this wonderful baseball event.
The expansion of the World Baseball Classic from 16 to 28 teams is a testament to the sport’s continuing growth in participation and popularity around the world,” said Major League Baseball Players Association Executive Director Michael Weiner. “The overwhelming fan, player and media support bestowed upon the first two World Classics is at the root of this decision, which makes the World Baseball Classic a truly global or international competition. I am only trying to point out the misnomer of calling it a Classic. We certainly hope this will become the event to which we will attach greatness just as we have done with our Baseball 2009 World Series.
The game of baseball has become truly an institution for which we proudly proclaim with our fan loyalty. Our Baseball World Series is the creme-de-creme of the best there is and it is proclaimed throughout the land.
The genesis of Baseball International Series was born with a Baseball International Series 2009 was not a World Classic so was while initially naming it as a Classic is mislabeling of the Series of games.
"Tell Me Honestly, Have You Figured It Out Yet Really Why They Are Still Calling It A Classic?"
"I Think It IS A Baseball International Series Old Shoe You Tell Me What You Think?"
The reported World Baseball games of 2006 and 2009 won by Japan was a lesson on Play To Win the future world class competition may transcend and replace the uniquely American generated Baseball World Series.
The future will possibly become and recognized as the Baseball International Series. If that change happens then our baseball major league rules and our major league basebll diamond rules will require some modifications to accept international accepted rules.
The name World Classic to my way of thinking is a misnomer and will one day be known as the Baseball International Series.
Would you be so brave as to voice your opinion on this Baseball International Series question?
