I'd rather watch paint dry than watch baseball. Hell, I'd rather watch Panthers football than watch baseball.

Ha I don't watch baseball like that either. Hell I'm only watching because Ohtani is having his first playoff series. He's been a no show so far.

 

I'm likely done watching after this series lol

I feel like baseball is a sport that you have to attend live. I hate watching it on tv but I love going to games.

I've seen people say that but I still don't get it. I've been to baseball games live and it's still the same boring poo. It's just an atrocious spectator sport IMO.

I like it in person because it’s slow enough that I can enjoy the company I’m with and my snacks lol. During football games I feel like I have to stay locked in lol.

I get it. I'd rather just hit up a brewery. Then you have the added bonus of not being annoyed by a baseball game.

It's supposed to be "slow". Like golf. Or soccer. It's not fast-paced like hockey or basketball, and it's not boiled down to just 17 critical games per year. But it's one of the hardest to play sports, and there is nothing like baseball playoffs in October. Crisp air, loud crowds, and each inning is a nail biter. I'll take it every time over the stop and start in play, commercial overload that is the NFL. But again, I'm on a football board so I'm not changing anyone's mind lol.

That said, my Yankees won a tough one tonight. One game away from the ALCS.

I will say this. I worked the scoreboard for a single A team when I was in college and it goes by much quicker when you are filling out your scorecard and also having to punch multiple buttons on the Daktronics key pad after one at bat.

There were times when poo like this happened.

- Hit runner to first, runner advances to second on throwing error, base runner on first thrown out at second, runner on third scores. And I’m sitting here like wtf… give me a second to key all that in.

One of my favorite aspects is that as long as there is no pitching change, you don't get a commercial until the inning is over. No matter how long it takes. Meanwhile in the NFL and the NBA ... oof.

    • My biggest fear with Bryce Young is that he will always do just enough to stick around. He shows flashes and then drops a turd so the hopium is always there. Like his career highlight reel if you cut it up to some hype music and did a YouTube video would actually be quite good. His great plays really, really look good. But after that video you look at his yearly averages for completion percentage, yardage, touchdowns, and virtually every other metric and it is meh as fug. Like you know Bryce is gonna be 13/23 for 157 yards a touchdown and probably a pick.  I will 100% give him his flowers for his athleticism and ability to scramble outside the pocket. I haven’t seen the mythical “super processing ability” he was touted for per se, but he has shown flashes of absolutely elite awareness when it comes to scrambling. The little basketball move he does to shake defensive linemen has almost become a signature move. It’s hard to explain but you know it when you see it he stops on a dime and pivots like he is gonna hit a step back jumper and it has gotten him out of a lot of trouble.  I sincerely, truly, as a vocal Bryce HATER, hope that since we are obviously running with him next year the coaching staff actually tailors plays around his strengths. He needs to be in a pure spread IMO. His size is much less of a hindrance when he can play QB in open space. I feel like most of his highlight reel is from scrambles and play action/bootlegs.  
    • draft me at 19 a lean mean tackling machine
