Maybe the newrules they are toying with will liven up the play. Of course, the majority of those rules sound stupid and will become an avenue for more delays arguing over the calls.
Televised Baseball is marginally more exciting than televised golf. At least we don’t have radio broadcasts of golf matches like (according to Harry Shearer) Britain.
Baseball games are so long. Being the scorekeeper for our company team a few years ago made the game more interesting. But its still too long of a game.
There are people who like baseball, and there are people who think baseball is boring, just as there are people who think that Soccer is boring. These people tend to be the ones who like the “non-stop” action of American Football (where a game with four 15 minute quarters lasts closer to three hours than one and the actual time when any plays are going one is closer to 15 minutes) or Basketball (where – let’s admit the facts here – most games are decided in the last five minutes or so). There are probably complaints about Hockey too, but I like Hockey.
Well! Now I have another reason to hate that ugly cat that doesn’t even look like a cat! How DARE he trash my Red Sox. OK, they sucked this season, but HOW VERY DARE HE?! As for me, after being a Red Sox fan, I am then an un-Yankees fan.
