| 69 days of sports boredom Its sad that there is such a big gap between basketball and football. I really wish baseball was more exciting! What are some entertaining sporting events between now and kickoff? I really can't wait until day 69 rolls around!!!! GBO! |

MLB is a joke league. As bad as the NBA is on calling even games(refs in prison), MLB umps are equally bad. On top of the bad umping, 6 of the top 8 playoff teams are usually within the top 10 payroll(on average). That alone makes the sport a joke. And that's on top of bad umping.
I want to believe you're being sarcastic but I don't think you are. Truly disturbing if you think MLB is a legit league. Especially if you own a business. --- Let me sink your business into the ground by offering the same service with quadruple your payroll. Good luck surviving.
Again, I think you're being sarcastic. Otherwise... stupid. Football(NFL/NCAA), Basketball(NBA/NCAA), Baseball(MLB).... nobody cares. That's the pecking order. If I had to choose another sport to follow after that, NHL. Soccer will never be an American sport and neither will college baseball. |

| Again, I hope you're being sarcastic.
If you think baseball is more important than UT football, troll.
Any league without a salary cap is useless, and college baseball isn't shown on TV for a reason. You're flat out trolling if you care more about baseball. |

| | Bleating Minion | Most people that don't like baseball either hail from socialist countries or were exposed to lead paint as children and tend to eat boogers. |

Also the NBA sucks.
