I would say it's because Canada and The United States are in North America while Mexico is in Central America, and because they speak a different language in Mexico.

Any tips on Autographs at a Cubs Game?

Good question. At the time Canadian teams were established (with the exception of the Raptors), US trade relations with Mexico were more firm with Canada than they were with Mexico. However, this has changed over recent years, so it should only be a matter of time before a Mexican team is considered for a major sports team. The language barrier (most of Canada is English-speaking) also plays a major role in this. A city like Mexico City would certainly have the population and interest level necessary to support a franchise, even if the entire population generally isn't interested in these sports.

Where can i find prices for old to new baseball cards on the internet?

there is already a precedent for Canadian and American teams in the same league (the NHL), also living in any of the major Canadian cities would be almost the same as an American one, when compared to Mexico. Except maybe for Americans who played for Quebec Nordiques, or something.

In fact, both countries' teams operate under pretty much the same rules except for Toronto FC in the MLS which I beleive has to use Canadians for domestic players instead of Americans.

Soccer is dominate there.

What is the greatest brawl in baseball history?

Mexico has teams but those sports are not as popular... Soccer is the predominant sport in Mexico which most people who live in Mexico and many people in the U.S. follow.

Ryboyin: Mexico is not a dirty rotten place. Their country may not be as financially stable as the U.S. but it is a beautiful place. You have never seen the churches and missions there. You don't see the beautiful work of the ancient Atzec Empire. You don't know what a spiritual place it can be. Haven't you ever heard of Cancun, Cabo San Lucas, Puerto Penasco(Rocky Point) and Tiajuana? Where do you think they are? MEXICO! I also know people who would kill to get a chance to play soccer in Mexico or even just to see Las Chivas play.
