How about baseball, again? What were you saying about 3rd worlders?

“Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she
With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”

they come HERE to play, in the MAJORS. we are the land of the free after all.

So what? Is the operative fact that they are playing here, or that they are U.S. citizens?

I'm a huge fan of baseball . . . and I understand that I am watching a ton of foreign players here on visas. But watching U.S. citizens play soccer makes the sport "3rd World?"
