I enjoyed watching the World Cup. Couple of random thoughts:
Team USA is obviously composed off good players, but is it the best of the best? I have this impression that the best college teams could have held their own in the World Cup competition. I look forward to the day when NPF players are paid enough to live on so that they can really focus on their game. From what I have seen, when the best women are playing softball, the intensity and quality of play is as good as baseball.
I like the fact that the catchers call the game. I really don't much care for the college game where the coaches call in the code and the players then look up the code on their armbands.
I grew tired of hearing the announcers talking about how the pressure on Team USA is so much more than in college ball. I find that hard to believe. The CWS at Oklahoma City is intense.
