<< How Amazing is baseball? >>


Heh, its amazing alright....I'd rather watch two ants race each other in the mile than a single inning of baseball 🙂
 
I understand baseball, and i still think its the most boring american game EVER!

Football is better.... even tough for every 15 second play, they have a 5 minute break...
 
baseball is one of my favorite sports to watch because you can hang out with friends, sit back and relax... it's not as fast paced as football or basketball so it doesn't demand as much attention from you. i get the vague impression a lot of you are trying to watch it like you would watch basketball, which is what makes it boring for you.
 
Football (or soccer as you heathens call it 😉) is by far the best sport.
Watching England playing Greece yesterday was 90 minutes of pure adrenaline.
 
Pretty amazing, I'd say. Then again, I'm a big fan.

Unfortunately, the M's couldn't hang on to win 117 tonight. 🙁

oh well, we'll still be in the recordbooks for tying.

onto the playoffs!
 
back to the topic...it's amazing that with all the pitcher/batter spitting, posturing, staring, chewing, adjusting wrist bands, personal adornment jewlery,etc that people put up with it. C'mon, if they would just throw the ball, hit the ball, it could be played in half the time and the excitement level would triple!! It's also amazing that it's an activity to bring families together, develop individual confidence, instill team playing , and be a life long adventure the way baseball can!

And then it wouldn't be baseball.

Take the sport as it is. Slow, methodical, and ingrained with strategy. Not fast. Never has been - never will be.
