Of the several conversations I have had over the years with Brits, they really dislike baseball in general. And it seems the one thing they really have a problem with is that we call it the World Series when we are the only ones in the world playing it.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
They also dislike the fact that we stole the name football for another obscure sport that only we are good at.
