    It's not just me.....Baseball sucks

    Sure Covid is fucking everything up but apparently these World Series have the fewest
    viewers since games have been televised. I saw a number of 9 million for game one or two when one team's market is 4 times that much

    Too many teams, agh, who cares. I would love to see more leagues struggling and ultimately failing

    Fuck these jocks. Dead stupid.

    If you could read you would understand that interest is at an all time low.

    Everyone is shut in, no where to go and they still don't care

    Where does this anger come from? I'm simply relaying the news.
    No I am not upset because it looks like I'm among the majority
    of non viewers

    Lets get serious though
    Instructional t-ball videos
    that's where you want to put your energy towards
    You got it all goin on down there

    No but I agree, for most people baseball sucks, I like it but it is so slow and sporadic excitement...like soccer,

    And poker...hour of boredom for seconds of excitement....also sounds like my honeymoon..ha

    You're talking to a nutter so there’s that.

    I love all sports. Baseball is as good as any other. So why was I so invested in the game before the existence of the Toronto Blue Jays/Montreal Expos? I lived for post season baseball. It's the sweetest sport in that time grinds to halt and then explodes into the night

    I'll answer my own question cause I'm not waiting for some corn husker

    It's watered down. It's corporately stretched beyond it's appeal.

    Even though this series has great stuff like an attempted theft of of home and a crazy game ending play, the idea that baseball sucks is generally correct.

    The demographics of baseball fans are terrible- really old males.

    The length of games with endless pitching changes is wearisome.

    Because of the advanced stats nerds that seem to run almost all of the teams, the ball is rarely in play on the field. It's either a strike out, a walk, or a home run.

    After WWII, the three most popular sports in the U.S. were baseball, boxing, and horse racing. Today, only baseball is anything more than a niche sport, and it's trending in the wrong direction.
