@@bonzo6926 There's tons of similar words between our languages, my man. And it always puts a smile on my face.

It's real, story of how is pretty much accurate as well. I would say Finnish baseball is better and to me the women's league is more entertaining. Seems more actiony and with fit beautiful girls.
Yes, it is a real thing. The inventor thought that baseball was too slow paced so pesäpallo has alot more action in it. Another point was to train young men to throw hand grenades more accurate.
In Norway, we call this game Døball (Deathball), or Slåball (literately Hitball). I had no idea that this was a thing outside of Norway, and I’m honestly pretty surprised. Man, I miss elementary school.
It's a joke in our culture. If you watch interviews of Finnish athletes from early 2000(some more recently, but gotten better) they all have horrible pronunciation. It sounds pretty much like that. So we have started calling it "rally english" , not sure about origin, but I bet it's because we had famous rally drivers who couldn't speak English.

FACT: Finnish baseball was invented to train and prepare soldiers for Finnish Army. Thanks to baseball Finns were fit and tough for Soviets in the Winter War . Baseball which was one of the main sport in the school taught young kids how to throw grenades, how to take cover and dive into foxholes and trenches and kept them physically in a good shape.
FACT: that was more of a marketing thing to get suojeluskunta (finnish militia 1918-1944) excited about it. Getting young men into this new sport was a key thing to make it succeed. It wasn't really invented for military purposes, but selling it this way was a win-win situation.

Lyrics of a Finnish song (no joke, they are real):
Saatana vittu perkele
Welcome to my world of death and pain
Oh it drives you so insane
I am no blast from the past
Because I'm death and I'm everlast
I'm the future breed, evil and mean
A fucking killing machine
No-one will stay alive and see
They all will die and join me
Fuck you and die, Living is so damn painful
It's coll to be dead and grateful
Nothing can hurt you anymore
Anyhow death is so much more
You can just kill, kill and kill
Just kill em all if you will
Do you still wanna stay alive
Or join me by my side
[Chorus:]
I am the Death Unlimited
And death is all I have to give
I'll tell you the meaning of life
It's not to live but to die
I am the Death Unlimited
And death is all I have to give
Let me spill your sweet blood
And to you I am god
Can you feel the dark side calling
It's useless to resist
Give in to fear, hate and anger
Then life won't take your time any longer
Only I am by your side
Soon your life is gone
And that I adore
