[/quote] You have to really understand baseball to enjoy it. 

I must have something wrong with me...I play fantasy football, run several pools at work, etc. Yet,  I cannot watch an entire pro football game on TV...Bores me to tears. Between the penalties, commercials, blown calls, replay reviews, taunting, etc,  I will have wasted an entire day. Now college football is another story.

[quote name="Chester86" post="1232920" timestamp="1340746359"] Tried talking our kids into playing our world series in Omaha this year.  I was met with a whole host of "No's!"  They all said they didn't want to go where there was nothing but cornfields.  I'll talk my wife into it eventually. [/quote] Much more than cornfields during the CWS  ;)...I can't wait to see the new venue. Stay in Council Bluffs if you make it.

[quote name="Chester86" post="1232812" timestamp="1340676964"] The CWS is my favorite sporting event of the year.  My wife and kids laugh at me, but I try to block off the whole time and watch as many games as possible.  This year has been especially good, and this finals has been a blast to watch.  Two very good teams, and excellent baseball being played on both sides.  I don't think people appreciate defensive struggles, but these have really been worth watching. [/quote] I am with you all the way...CWS is a true classic. As you stated, two very good teams in the finals this year with excellent pitching and defense. If you have never attended the CWS, you should go.

Phat, I saw this guy throw two pitches in the World Baseball Congress ( i think that's the name) for Cuba. I turned to my friends and said "Get the boat ready, we're going to pick him up in Miami."  ;) Kid is a beast.

[/quote] Well a golf ball sits in one place and doesn't move. A baseball comes toward you at over 90 mph and you don't know what type of pitch is coming. Plus the sweet spot of a bat is about 3in wide "ARE YOU INSANE"? "GET REAL"! ::) ::) Just look at what it takes to be a successful player in each sport. In football if the QB completes 60% of his passes he is considered pretty good, if you shoot 45%(might be higher idk) or better you are considered a pretty good basketball player. [b]In baseball if you get a hit 30%  of the time and do it over a career you will be a hall of famer[/b]. Baseball is difficult because it requires more specialized skill than any  of the other major sports. It is not as physically demanding, but that is not what this conversation is about. [/quote] First off, let me say that I have no idea why we are going back and forth on this issue.  Neither of us are going to change our minds, and we both seem to like arguing a point to death!  That being said, here we go... there is no generally accepted measure of difficulty placed on any given sport, so your supposition that baseball is more difficult is completely subjective based on YOUR opinion.  Is it possible that baseball is more difficult than football? Perhaps...I just don't have facts and figures to back up that argument, so I choose not to make possible false statements.  For instance, to the average poster on this site, you may seem like a total moron; however, it would be wrong for me to categorize you as a moron, because maybe you're just putting on some kind of act...I don't know, so I choose to stay away from false statements. [/quote] or yet it could also be based on Falcon's personal experience at the high school and/or college level.  Just sayin  ;) Besides, me...I'm only here to argue with Dicki V and sound "ignorant".  :o :o :o :o
