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.

      I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      By frankw · Posted

      Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
