Baseball is Boring...

I could sit here and type about the complexities of baseball.

I could break down why Cliff Lee is better than Roy Halladay based on something called WHIP.

But, I will not.

Why?

Well, it is simple.  About three of you would know what I was talking about.  The rest would bounce their head off of their keyboard, be rendered unconscious, and then drool on their keyboard.  That's bad for your computer.

Now, if I were discussing why Peyton Manning is superior to Tom Brady, you would be all in.  Not to mention, a little sad because (if you are a Panther fan), you assumed the forward pass is illegal in the NFL.

Football is kicking baseball's ass.  Sunday, October 17, the NLCS went head to head against Sunday Night Football.  Both were on network television (NLCS on Fox and Sunday Night Football on NBC).  How did that go?  Eighteen million people watched a midseason regular season football game.  Eight million people watched a playoff baseball game.  Now, eight million people is a lot.  But, it's also about the same amount of people that watched the NFL Draft in April.

That sounds about right.  Baseball is as exciting as watching a guy reading a guy's name he can't pronounce.

FYI:  Babe Ruth hit his first professional home run in Fayetteville, North Carolina.
