RE: Expect Some Bad Baseball in the Coming Weeks
Yes, probably shared by most people, which is why the game is withering among younger fans. It's my favorite sport for all of those reasons, though: the game, the stats, the market moves. I grew up listening on the radio, so my horizon of patience may be a little longer. But it's hard to deny that it's not making a compelling cases with all of today's competing entertainment options.
You know, this may truly be a big part of its appeal. Maybe part of what made baseball so special for so many may be the mental visualization of what was happening.
I don't suspect it will go anywhere, they will just have to find a better way to market it to fans. Perhaps they could start by not charging $12 for a pretzel at a stadium :D
