    Why is 'Mr Universe' always won by a human?

    Why a boxing 'Ring'?

    Why does the 'World' series in Baseball only contain American teams?

    This one I can answer. It is because it was sponsored by The World newspaper but it is taken the wrong way. On both sides of the Atlantic.

    Another one.

    If a man buys a woman lingerie for Valentines, who is he really buying it for?
    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.

    If you're too embarrassed to go to your GP about your illness, why would you go on TV with it?

    Well, there you go. Totally mugged by an urban myth :oops:
    I did check other sources as Wikipedia is not 100% accurate.

    1) Don't know
    2) Don't know
    3) Because it was originally sponsored by a newspaper called 'The World'

    Wow, as far as not reading above posts goes that was really bad!

    The reason it's called the world series is because it was the World Championship Series and was intended that all baseball playing nations would enter their champion teams to take part. When it was created the only major baseball nation was the USA and due to their two league set up they effectively had two USA Champions so they began the World Championship Series as a game between them. There was (apparently) full intention to allow other nations to join the world series at a later date when a nation was of a good enough standard but AFAIK no-one has ever asked to join and now with over 100 years of only USA teams playing it is held in the public view as simply a USA only event.

    I thought this was due to the fact they cost 99p (or at leased used too)

    Really pedantic point: Toronto Blue Jays aren't American (and they've won the World Series twice).

    ha, fair enough, hence the AFAIK bit. I was tempted to have a look through previous winners but then decided I couldn't be bothered as someone would point out the exception.

    Question is: do they play as part of the a American leagues or have they played in the world series as "Champions of Canada" as opposed to "Champions of the United States"
    ?

    Considering that Flakes were being sold as "99 flakes" in the Thirties, it strikes me as odd that people would know that "99p" would come to be a feasible price in the Seventies.

    In mid-winter, when you're wearing 5 layers scarf and hat, do shops have the heating on full?

    Ditto in summer when you're wearing shorts sandles and a tank top, why do they have the aircon at max?

    Don't they want shoppers to be comfortable and stay inside?

    They play in the same league, as does (or did?) a Montreal team. There may well be others.

    Fair to say it is a North American league though.

    Why do people post threads on forums saying they have ££££££kkks to spend on a bike but want advice as to which one? If they have that much money and don't know themselves they shouldn't be buying one!
