Welcome to hell!!!

Just finished up watching the headlines on ESPN about Sosa/McGuire chasing Maris's homerun record in 1998 and how it relaunched baseball and how Rikpen saved baseball after the strike in 1995 by breaking the straight game record. And you know what, even though these records are pretty damn impressive in their own right, it sucks that it takes just breaking records for the American people just to get back into the game. And the game itself nobody gave a damn about at that point in 1998, all they cared about was McGuire or Sosa stepping up to the plate, they (the media and a majority of casual sports fans at that point) could've gave rats ass who they were facing at the mound weather it be Roger Clemens, Tom Glavine or some 3rd rate reliever. The game itself is boring as shit, with only brief moments of excitement coming here and there, true I love playing it out on the field, but as far as being a spectator, baseball can kiss my ass!

Long live football! The football game itself is always a true battle out on 100 yards of turf, where 22 men battle for 60 minutes for the right of one...single...ball. Hell, college football gets more attention then baseball too. Weather my team is dominating or on the losing end of a humiliating blowout, I still tune in to the end. Just like they said on the headlines, the records don't get as big as attention as they do in baseball, instead millions of viewers tune in each week simply for the game itself. And you couldn't ask for more out of a sport than that itself.
