I was told the MLB was dying and that the NBA was the most popular league according to this message board.

I mean it helps when the MLB game is on fox and the NBA game is on TNT

No it’s the NFL

Old people watch more tv than young people. Old people like baseball more than they like basketball.

Not a surprise. The Home Run Derby regularly beats the NBA All-Star Game in yearly ratings. 7 million viewers is actually ridiculously bad though. Last year's game got 8.69 million viewers and it was an all-time low.

MLB showed out so well with the All Star festivities. The Home Run Derby with its new rules and new talent was nonstop drama.
Then the game itself was a blast with personal inclusions such as players being mic’d up directly to the booth. I mean you had Freddie Freeman talking directly to Joe Buck and John Smoltz while at the plate vs Verlander.
Tip of the hat.

It's easier to play a competitive exhibition in baseball vs the other sports without worrying about injuries.

Is this a surprise? The MLB all star game is the only all star game that isn’t a total farce, and historically fans and players were really into it. Not as much anymore, but it’s still pretty close to real baseball and the history of the game makes it a draw.
Being on network vs cable definitely makes a difference as well

One is on FOX one is on TNT

The NBA ASG is worse than the pro bowl. It’s a complete joke. They need to do something to get these guys to actually compete.

The MLB All Star game has two big advantages:
1. It's played at a time where the is virtually no competition from other sports
2. It's played like a real game vs. the half-assed exhibition game that is the NBA All Star Game. However, I fully understand NBA players half assing it. To play a competitive game they would have to exert significant energy. In the baseball game you can have what feels like a competitive game without the players overexerting themselves. It's just the nature of the two sports.

This has nothing to do with the popularity of the league. It's the popularity of the all star game.
Next you'll tell us that the MLB is more popular than the NFL because the MLB all star game gets better ratings than the pro bowl.

The NBA all star game should be renamed the NBA glorified dunk contest. Nothing but a bunch of guys standing around on "defense" watching the offense do their acrobatics and flashy moves.
Such garbage appeals to the lowest common denominator.

It’s because the MLB all star game is the only real all star game.
Football and basketball are terrible fake yo yo yo rap fests.
