Baseball sucks
My dislike for baseball runs deep, and I do not wish to explain all the reasons for this hatred today.
However, I'll post one reason here and allow others to add if they want. Maybe I'll work on more later. Reason 1 Intentional walking. Seriously, what other sport allows teams to take their best opponent player out of the game entirely? It's like being able to foul Kobe every time down the court, and then letting him shoot one free throw every third foul. Since great batters only get up to the plate maybe 4 times a game, I feel this comparison is valid. Lame. |

Baseball is a game which one needs watch in real life to truly appreciate it....
Besides professional football, which can be very boring live, baseball is by far the best in seat spectator sport...... Nothing beats the feeling of walking around Fenway, or Wrigley, nestling in your seat with a hot dog and cold beverage, and soaking in the sun on a hot summers day... |

Maybe I should have said that baseball is a crappy sport to watch on TV. |

I don't have the time to lay out a strong response right now, but I will say you're wrong. Baseball is about strategy, history, and grace. It is the thinking man's sport. What was the length of the temple of Solomon? 90 feet. The height? Pretty close to 60 feet 6 inches.
The width of the football field, the basketball court or the ice? Who knows?! Who cares?! Again, short on time. Sorry.
