    As I have never watched a real game I will have to take your advice on that one.

    What I meant was I would like to see if the yanks could actualy win if they were to play in a real world series. Probably didnt make that clear.

    I think Cuba have a fair few players too as do Mexico and a couple of other South American and Carribean countries.
    I think quite a few play in the American leagues too.

    Russia also said that any missile fired over its territory from North Korea would be shot down.

    Do they actually have the technology to do that? I think they are just talking themselves up.

    I wouldn't be surprised if that recent blast equivalent to so many thousand of tonnes of TNT was only so many thousand of tonnes of TNT.

    started a topic US 'prepared' for N Korea missile

    US 'prepared' for N Korea missile

    Full Story Here

    North Korea has stepped up its missile programme in recent weeks
    The US is "in a good position" to protect its territory from a potential North Korean missile strike, US Defence Secretary Robert Gates has said.

    His comments came in response to a report that North Korea was considering launching a missile towards Hawaii.

    Pearl Harbour all over again anyone ?
