5 Reasons why Baseball is better than Football

Post by Mercury » Sun Feb 05, 2017 6:44 pm

1. Baseball championship games do not stop for 30+ minutes for shitty pop-tarts to pretend to sing their own songs.

2. Baseball games do not attract the element of society that watches something because they like the commercials.

3. Baseball players do not, in general, start break-dancing or pretending that they are King Kong, after completing a routine defensive play.

4. Baseball games, on television, very rarely show Jerry Jones' face.

5. Baseball does not pretend that it is better than other sports because of some kind of parity that does not exist.

Baseballl had the ending of a 108-year drought, and the 7th largest gathering of humans in history. Boom.

And no break-dancing.

Uh oh, clubby. I've got some potent rage-fuel for you today.

Let the hate flow through you....

Report: MLB considering starting extra innings with runner on second base
“It’s not fun to watch when you go through your whole pitching staff and wind up bringing a utility infielder in to pitch,” Joe Torre told Yahoo. “As much as it’s nice to talk about being at an 18-inning game, it takes time.”

I cannot argue with any of this.

I might become a baseball fan.
The problem for me is, baseball is played during a time of year when I'm not watching much TV. Can you fix that for me ?

TV is overrated. Listen to your team's broadcast on radio while you're out working in the shop, or doing stuff outside in the evening.
