Baseball is stupid

Awesome? Why?

All the baseball people in Boston can talk about is how much money Jon Lester should or should not make for staying or going to the Cubs. For doing the most boring thing in the universe. Throwing a ball?

All you people that pay for that shit are fucking stupid. What I object to is the system where I have to pay for it as well. I need a system where I can absolve myself from that stupid fucking shit.

I agree. Professional sports are awful. I would never vote for a stadium or anything like that. About the only place that does it right is Green Bay, but I'm sure that if you dig below the surface, you'd find plenty of corruption as well.

But the game of baseball is awesome.
 
Apparently, supply-side economics only works when combined with bastardized Keynesian theory for stadiums.

-And yes, Baseball is stupid.

The only thing fun is the hitting and you can do that in a batting cage with a pitching machine.
 
I only see your craptastic shit when it is quoted. Garnate is not here. There is no noob for you to push around. There is no "I don't know who you are" snark opportunity. Dry up and blow away.

I may get crucified for this, but fuck it. I agree. Baseball is the most boring, stupid game to watch. Maybe it is fun to play? I didn't think so as a kid. I don't think so as an adult.

It just fucking sucks. What other "sport" do they arrange a wake up time in? The "7th inning stretch?" Really????? If it is so fucking boring you have to have a wake up stretch, what the hell is the point?
 
I can't really get into watching baseball on TV. It totally distorts the perspective of the game.

Minor league games are a lot of fun.
 
I don't know, baseball is the only sport I can actually watch. I went to school with a major leaguer turned manager, so I follow him.

This thread just made me remember BoyNextDoors awesome blowjob pics with whatsherface. Sheesh those were good.
 
Since they are games, have no idea how one tests their intelligence. But, one can wonder about the people watching games. For example, a televised football game takes over three hours, while the execution of the plays takes 11-12 minutes.
 
My grandson just got a 100K scholarship cuz he throws a fast ball about 100 mph. Two former MLB players with World Series rings put him in for the scholarship. And he has excellent grades.

The game is boring because the talent is so good. Horse racing is the same. America loves champions and drama but the competition is tough, and all of the players are damn good.
 
Baseball is a marvelous game. I will admit that it's considerably more fun to play than to watch, but that opinion is probably shaded by the fact that I was once a player.

It encompasses both individual achievement and team cooperation. On offense it is the batter against the world, one man/woman facing 9 other individuals. On defense close teamwork is required to successfully defend.

As far as the money tied up in the sport goes, I could care less unless public monies are used to finance private gain. ie. the use of public monies to build a stadium. But my objections there extend to football, basketball, and all other professional sports as well. The only exception in my book is the Packers stadium in that the Packers are the very last of the home town owned teams. If you live in Green Bay, you own a share of the team.

Not really sure what Garnate has to do with anything but it's really sad you had to post a fake iggy at 2am about me.

If I apologize for hurting you so badly can we be friends?
 
I feel sorry for anyone who cannot appreciate the beauty of Teddy Ballgame swinging his bat, or Sandy Koufax's high kick before delivering a fastball.
 
It's not my favorite sport, but I'll watch anything where they are keeping score.
