Check it out--Astoria, Oregon's Jordan Poyer and Kevin Cummings from California were both picked to the field of 36 graduating HS seniors.

Sweden, Germany, Mexico, France, Canada and Japan are among the qualifiers.

All I have to say is Sweden, you're going DOWN.

And by the way, if we don't ABSOLUTELY DOMINATE this competition I'm going to be pissed and sad. We can lose the World Baseball Classic, I'm cool with that. The world is catching up in basketball too, so I can almost deal with some of the increased competition in that area, however I think we should still win most of the time. But in FOOTBALL--our football--we need to put on a freaking clinic. Period.
