    Baseball is awful, beaten only by American football. It's boring as hell, lasts 8 hours, there are a bajillion games per season, the same teams always win and most players just kind of stand around. Even worse, they invented softball for the ladies, which is slower and more boring because the ball is bigger and apparently feeble lady arms can only manage to pitch underhanded.

            I can think of at least 2 baseball games that were particularly fun to watch.

            One was game 7 of the 2016 World Series, and the other, well...

        It always puzzle me why do Cubans are into baseball that much. Why can't they just like football like the rest of the Americans.

      It's like Elon Musk tried to invent a sport and came up with worse Cricket.

      "the same teams always win"

      Not really true though. 7 different teams have won the last 7 titles, and while the Dodgers and Yankees are always good everyone else cycles up and down.

        I don't wanna give out too much info about my private life, but I've had the occasion to watch a lot of college ball and I just can't do it. On the plus side, snack bars are pretty good and I got a lot of reading done at the games.
