The NFL, the NHL, and the NBA work. "The MLB" does not. HERE'S WHY! The final word of those acronyms. "The League." (x2) "The Association." "The Baseball." Which one doesn't make sense here?

I wonder who had the most RBIs in The MLB last year? it's actually RsBI, because "runs" is plural. Not a lot of people know that. brb, posting this from an ATM machine after putting in my PIN number.

Of course "The MLB" is incorrect, I was just playing along and made the joke the I was using it in a sentence, which would technically read as "I wonder who had the most Runs Batted Ins in The Major League Baseball last year?" You never get my jokes.. Dating back to the classic Vesia ones of 2020. 😂

It's a great thing and MLB is boring as heck right now with the usual spring training stuff. If the WBC was overlapping with the regular season than yeah but nothing wrong with it now. Of course I know when it would come to an end and I just can't wait for it, I said before I'm not interested in these non-MLB games and that's it.

Ok so enjoy the Spring Training games in the mean time, the WBC isn't preventing those games from happening.

Friend of mine asked about this and said he thought MLB stood for "Major Leagues of Baseball" - in which case, that'd make sense! "The Major Leagues ... of Baseball." Should tell Manfred to change it so we can all live happily ever aft-- and Manfred changed the balls again.
