> yeah u see how many people give a fuck about hockey. I’ll get some rookie ball to throw 95+ while you stand there tryin to hit and then we’ll see who the pussy is. then U’ll have that heater in you head and he give you the falling off the table curve and you fall on your face. People the cry and bitch about baseball are usually the ones who never played or sucked at it. What about all that time in between football plays, how about only about 8 minutes of a football game is actual action. how about those two minutes shifts in hockey, Pitching is no less difficult than skating. If it was so easy why isn’t everyone out there pitching? To say what you say about baseball is just ignorance, you don’t know what ur talking about. Baseball isn’t my favorite sport and its much more difficult than you think. if 9/10 of the population thought it was boring it would be a line in two ways, one 9/10 of the population would be able to make that decision as thery are hanicapped, eldery or to young and if 9/10 didn’t like it, it wouldn’t exist on the scale it does.

I played baseball for a lot of years, I wasn’t great but i wasn’t bad at it.  
pitching is nothing like learning to skate  
2 minute shift in hockey is nothing like the time between pitches.

watching baseball sucks ass

doesn’t matter, the MLB turned me off to the whole sport. I don;t play hockey anymore just for the pure fact some ass bags stole my equipment and I really don;t have the time anymore.

there isn’t really a lot of time in between pitches. over hand throwing is an unatural motion, try learning to master a curve ball and a slider and throwing the ball as hard as you can with accuracy while some other guy is tryin to hit it 450 over your head.

hockey can’t be played when ever, where ever. baseball can. hockey you need and indoor rink or somewhere cold enough that water freezes. baseball you can play in any large flat area. Chances are if you lived in the city your parents didn’t have the money for you to play ice hockey, its insanely expensive and the hours are rediculous.

Why is it baseballs fault you get disuaded towards stuff so easily? You just sound bitter and miserable so you say fuck this and fuck that.

errr nice try, its a different sport, roller hockey is so much different than ice hockey than street hockey. Baseball is baseball.

on the stadiums? do you like to beat a dead horse with that violin? GET OVER IT. Fact of that is, because of the pirates new stadium they are gettin the all star game next year which will bring in tons of money. The steelers stadium is a moot point, regardless of the field they still would have brought in the money they did becasue of the playoffs. The stadium was a non factor where as for the all star game it was the deciding factor.
