puerto rican baseball team

[_hexed_]

so before you think I'm hating on my puerto rican friends hear me out. in the world baseball classic theres baseball teams from all the participating SOVEREIGN NATIONS right? including venezuela, japan, u.s.a., etc etc. go do a search on google for United states territories and a few examples come up, such as the virgin islands, midway, the marianas, guam, and samoa. these countries are not considered sovereign because they are territories of a major parent nation namely the US. now my issue is this, puerto rico falls under the category of territory of a parent nation. why is it all the other teams involved are sovereign nations yet puerto rico as a territory is allowed to participate. I realize that they want to be their own nation, but so does quebec and canada doesn't allow them to participate in international events under the quebec flag they have to use the canadian flag so why does the US allow a territory to compete against it when they could use the talent from that territory to further thicken their own roster?

I know useless question because no one on my friends list actually gives a shit but I do so deal with it.

now real entry...
things are going extremely well with me and Sarah. I just bought a new paintball gun. and so far being 24 has been rather uneventful. not that I expected anything different with any of these situations, but this is me so who knows what could have happened.
thank you to everyone who wished me a happy birthday.
I miss certain friends voices alot and I'm sorry I never call. specifically certain ones living in ohio and arizona currently.
