    they are European champions

    not world champions!

    ok maybe not an Austrian team but there is at least 4 football teams from Latvia who would take the seahawks to OT


    nba is the same thing, people wonder why they are called world champions

    the foreigns play the grizzlies and something and they get shit stomped

                  It's also the same for baseball and basketball. It makes zero sense.

                        In baseball, the World Series is named after the newspaper that sponsored the original series, a hundred+ years ago, between the National League and American League champions. (they were separate leagues at the time). The New York World. Hence, 'World Champions'.

                              Bases capping is unbeatable

                              Never seen a sport were so many short priced favs are turned over

                              Even soccer isnt as bad!

                              Anyone who says they make money on MLB is a big fat LIAR

                              What an awful season it has been in bases

                                  Because we are Americans and we feel like we are the best country in the world and if you are any good at sports you come toAmerica to play professional.

                                  do they even have tackle football leagues in other countries? I know they shut down NFL Europe.

                                      Okay so Canada has 1 baseball team and 4 Hockey teams ... My mistake ... You go to USA or Canada.

                                      Americans don't care about Soccer unless its the World Cup.

                                                just because they don't show these sports on American cable, doesn't mean that millions of people on the other side of the globe don't watch something else other than baseball and amer football

                                                  Anyone who says they make money on MLB is a big fat LIAR

                                                  What an awful season it has been in bases
                                                  I could eat a bowl of alphabet soup and shit out a better payout than that...

                                                    You're right... The athletes in Latvia and Austria are better than the ones in the NFL.. They'd rather stay and play there for 30k a year instead of 5 million a year in the NFL. Makes a lot of sense...

                                                                  Here is what Wikipedia says about the term:

                                                                  Use of the phrase "world champions"[edit]

                                                                  Main article: Major professional sports leagues in the United States and Canada ยง Use of the phrase "world champions"
                                                                  Like the other major professional leagues in the United States, the winner of the Super Bowl is usually declared "world champions", a title often mocked by non-Americans.[54][55] Others feel the title is fitting, since it is the only professional league of its kind.[56]
                                                                  The practice by the U.S. major leagues of using the "World Champion" moniker originates from the World Series, and it was later used during the first three Super Bowls when they were referred to as AFL-NFL World Championship Games. The phrase is still engraved on the Super Bowl rings.
