I love u baseball

Let's not go overboard.

Honestly I've been getting more into baseball as I've gotten older. Just easy to chill out with.

Yeah that and golf. Both still kind of boring but ok in the background. Beer helps

Golf is so much better played with friends than watched

I like watching baseball in person, but I can't stand it on TV. I like the little games and whatever on the TV between innings, and the shorter pitch clock has made the game a lot more enjoyable.

I mean, compare it to the other pro sports. Unless you live in a state with a hockey team, baseball is as good as it gets.

Basketball works anywhere.

Football and soccer are way better. In my home state, our women's soccer team was one of the best in the country, and my current state has one of the best men's soccer teams.

Hockey is cool, but there are a lot more options than just baseball. In fact, I almost never run into baseball fans anymore, it's mostly football and basketball these days, with some soccer fans on the side.

The man has never seen a game, at most he hit a tennis ball with a bat-like object once and thought "that's cool"
