My Philadelphia Phillies are the World Champions of baseball. Sorry, I never get tired of saying that! {thumb2}

Or as Chase Utley told the crowd "World F*cking Champions".

The NFL hasnt used the term "World champions" since the late 60's and the start of the Superbowl. They are now refered to as "Superbowl champions" {up}

Plus, It makes sense that the MLB, NBA, NHL are called World Champions, because the they are all made up of players from around the world, especially the MLB {thumb2}

Major representatives in eac other the following sports:

NHL: Canada, Russia, USA, former Soviet republics.
NBA: USA, China, former Soviet republics, Spain, Argentina
MLB: USA, Dominican Republic, Cuba, Venezuela, Japan

Khackdrums :D
Actually they do call the NFL world champions sometimes. Gino Cappeleti the broadcaster for the Patriots always calls them the World Champions. Oh and I have a 2004 World Champion Super Bowl Winners The Patriots Sweater.

that is because no where else in the world you get competition like the NBA,MLB, or NHL. So thats why they say "world champions"
