2017 World Baseball Classic: America vs America?

The US and Puerto Rico are facing each other in the 4th game of Pool F.

A win for the US would see them clinch at least a tiebreaker game while Puerto Rico can clinch first place in the group with a win

LITERALLY UNSTOPPABLE

i like the middle one senpai, will you guys pick it this July 11?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puerto_Rican_status_referendum,_2017

I wonder if you'll be able to continue having national teams

...

They will either be a state or an independent country

100% we won't be allowed

If they become a state, do they keep their national teams?
Does it become a choice?

No it isn't a choice anymore, they have to give them up.
They only have a team because the US is blue balling them

England has national teams although they have to compete as Great Britain at the Olympics

pr51st.com/misconceptions-about-puerto-rico-and-statehood-3/

Yeah I sent one of them that one too after I saw it here on Sup Forums, same effect.

USA crushing it

Weird, I was sure that they would have to give that up. Well good for them.

>inb4 another 4 hour game
starting to piss me off desu, are the commercial breaks longer or what, there are maybe a couple more mid inning pitching changes than the average MLB game which takes 3 hours

I mean there's no legal authority to this
They can do whatever the hell they want
The fact Puerto Rico has an Olympic team now kinda proves it

There's like 60 mound visits
That US-Colombia game took as long as a usual game mostly because the pitching changes came between innings
But every team takes a 10 minute break to strategize every inning and it's annoying

>tfw combines US-PR team tears the DR a new one in 2021

Tbh I'm not sure if many Puerto Ricans players would make the US team

>the Seattle Seahawks kicker is walking around Petco
Lmao he's a nice dude though

why THE FUCK would we give statehood to a debt ridden shithole like Puerto Rico?

We need to sell that island if anything

Having control of it has literally NO benefit

we'd be helping US citizens

They won't be citizens if we revoke their citizenship and make the island independent or sell it

then their debt won't be our problem

show me where in the constitution it says we can just revoke people's citizenship because we feel like it

>yfw Tebow joins the roster for the finals

It's called Puerto Rico isn't a state so we're not bound to follow the constitution in regards to them

Might as well remove Mississippi and some other debt ridden shitholes. Also we make up the majority of the USA military infantry.

i'll fuckin deport you

USA
S
A

>i'll deport a Citizen

You can't Cletus, nor the ICE :^)

OUT OUT OUT

Where?

To Spain

god fucking bless america

Which war was it that we got Puerto Rico?

>it's pedro fantasizing about PR statehood again
ha hahahaha

Tell that to hundreds of Armed Forces veterans born in PR.

Individual citizenship isn't part of state's rights, Donald

This, they're fucked if they choose independence and a lot of the Puerto Rican's I know want statehood

>muh military

You PR people already leech enough tax dollars, now you're joining the military en masse to get even more taxpayer money?

REEEEEEEEEEEEE

Vamo' Puelto Lico

At the end of the Spanish-American war, after the "Treatry of Paris" in 1889. We bacame citizen March 1917.

youtube.com/watch?v=r-3HEyR-c3M

Best commerical right here. Came on during USA england in 2010 world cup. God damn

the US constitution protects all US citizens dumbfuck

theoretically the US could stop giving newly born Puerto Ricans citizenship but they couldn't touch living Puerto Ricans

It's Puelto RRico

Thanks fellow American

IF YOU REVOKE THEIR CITIZENSHIP, THEN THEY AREN'T USA CITIZENS AND THE CONSTITUTION WOULDN'T APPLY TO THEM IDIOT

>now
PRs have been serving since WW1, but w/e.

>leech enough tax dollars, now y
You need to read a little bit more. There is more money that goes from PR to the states than what PR receives in "benefits"

arenado sucks don't talk to him

>revoking anyone citizenship

Actually parts would still apply

youtube stream?

you can't revoke US citizenship without good reason (like they'd join ISIS-tier shit)

Too bad you can't revoke it :^)

Also, the island would empty itself out before you got the chance. There's already more PRs living in the mainland than in the island itself. Any talk of kicking us out and you'd see the current migration wave (100k to 500k estimated gone by year-end) quadruple in size.

No problem Ameri-bro

Daniel "Westboro Baptist Church" Murphy in the lineup lads!

why don't you like your little island

puerto rico is an island right?

Yup. Now we could stop localisation citizenship. Change it to birthright citizensship. Only those born to Americans are Americans.

Christ, you people are worse than Mexicans

STAY OUT OF THE MAINLAND

Go Puerto Rico

Still haven't understood that 2013 loss

I dont even mind Puerto Ricobros. Its like if it was USA Vs. Your State.

nice watermark idiot jesus do you people ever stop stealing

God bless America, indeed

>STAY OUT OF THE MAINLAND
If you want that to happen, making us a state is your best bet.

I like the island, I just don't like the economic collapse and shit.

What's with the blondes?

Let's shown the mainland how we do baseball down here.

As much as I love your women, they tend to ruin peoples lives, please fuck off and never come back.

>yfw this post makes me imagine Trump requesting that his private bodyguards kill off his secret service detail and sneak him into the National Archives in the middle of the night so he can use the constitution to wipe his ass
>yfw he calls Nicholas Cage to find out the best way to do it

I like how he calls the black players property

Do you have that hairdo where it's like a mohawk but only on the back of your head?

hahahahahahhahahaha

Lindor owning Americans

how come every country in the tournament sends their A team but we send our D team?

A team USA vs A team Dominican Republic would actually be fucking amazing to watch

No, I'm not a degenerate. I have a regular buzz cut.

ayy

>memecutchen
can we stop pretending this guy is elite

>marine layer
enough

o fuck we're getting blown the fuck out it's all over

What's with all the Puerto Ricans with dyed blonde hair?

Money

PUERTO RICO IS WHITE!

WE WUZ CONQUISTADOR AND SHIEET

How does it feel to be beaten by a territory?

Its a stupid meme about 'bringing home the gold'.

I guess they're just feeling the pressure after Monica Puig won that gold medal last year.
