I went to a live NHL game and had fun. I imagine it would be fun playing, but I just can't get into watching it on a regular basis, otherwise.

I like baseball and used to enjoy going to games, but it costs too damn much to go to a ML game now. Also, the season is too long, and the games are too slow to watch on TV.

If you don't like hockey it's because you're racist against white people.

If you don't like baseball it's because you're a terrorist.

Simple.

Hockey- eh just never got into it

MLB- I don't have a rooting interest in any team so I don't really get into it at all. I don't hate baseball though, I'm into LSU baseball

But you still watch the NFL, because there has never been any PED use.

I believe that qualifies as a BOOM.

baseball just fricking sucks. Its slow


You must really hate football. They run a 4 second play and then stand around for 40 seconds before running another 4 second play. A 3 and a half hour game with 10 minutes of action. That's not slow at all.

What... Please elaborate


Rain delays, doubleheaders, not rigorously timed, no instant replay, odd broadcast times, splitting the post season across network and cable.

It's just a terrible television product. X Factor and Dancing with the Stars should not be outdrawing the World Series.

So you're saying that baseball should do more to appeal to the reality show watching housewife demographic?

baseball:

was too ADD as a kid to pay attention. excelled in football and basketball though. mainly just got bored playing it even though i was decent.


in college the baseball players were the biggest douches on campus, furthering my dislike for the sport. Now the MLB season seems too long and the players still seem like douches.


I think i'd like hockey if i went to a few games.

I didn't say that at all, what I am saying is that shows like this should not be outdrawing the World Series, nice try though.
