ROCbass Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 That video reminded me of baseball in one way: I was bored less than 2 minutes in. Quote

Super User tomustang Posted March 5, 2012 Super User Posted March 5, 2012 All that to swing a stick, I fell asleep 30 seconds in Quote
Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted March 5, 2012 Super User Posted March 5, 2012 I would rather watch paint dry, or a chess match. Baseball is mind numbing to watch and almost as bad to play. It very well may have been the easiest and least strenuous sport I've ever played. Now Rugby on the other hand. To each his own though. Quote
Sfritr Posted March 6, 2012 Author Posted March 6, 2012 Crazy. Baseball boring? I need a drink.. Next thing you guys will tell me that the nba is real basketball.... Saddened. ;( Quote
MyKeyBe Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 I agree with some of these other guys. I just can't get into baseball. I was drug to a pro game when I was 12 or 13 and it was the longest 7,000 hours of my life. Quote

Super User A-Jay Posted March 6, 2012 Super User Posted March 6, 2012 For me, Summer is just not Summer without Baseball. There's a game every night (almost). I've been a big fan my whole life. Opening Day is a Big Deal - btw - the video was OK - watching it, I was immediately reminded just how diminutive Dustin Pedroia is. And that makes his high level of ability and play even more amazing. A-Jay Quote
ROCbass Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 REALLY????? you guys were not inspired by the story????? Wow...... It made me want to run through a wall to get back out 0n the field The story itself is inspirational, yes. Where the video lost me was all the slow boring music over shots of guys lifting weights and doing agility ladders in between sentences. If the video was about half as long and the story was told steadily instead of having all those long pauses, it would have been much better. JMO. Quote
Sfritr Posted March 6, 2012 Author Posted March 6, 2012 The true call of spring! RIP Ernie. one of the True greats!!! Gonna be a sad day when Marty Brenneman goes in Cincy also Quote
Captain Obvious Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Great story and yes I can't wait for baseball season cause this year the Rangers are going to final win it all!!!! Quote
quanjig Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Just not into it. Played soccer and to me, much more exciting. Others think the same thing about soccer, boring. It was a big part of my life for 20+ years and because of injury was forced to choose walking over playing, so now I fish. At this point in my life, wish I had put as much effort into fishing that I had in soccer!! Quote
Scorcher214 Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7X38PCf7kao I like this video a lot more. And +1 to baseball as boring. Been to two tigers games. Best part was the fireworks at the end. Football and basketball games are what I like to watch. Quote

At this point in my life, wish I had put as much effort into fishing that I had in soccer!! Soccer is the best. Fun as all get out to watch too. I used to love playing when I was younger. I found out a few years ago that being a hooligan was more fun than actually playing the game. You don't watch Premier League by chance do ya? Quote
Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted March 10, 2012 Super User Posted March 10, 2012 Man U. Hands down. Man U?!? You got that all wrong Homie. Your supposed to say Chelsea all day!!! Chelsea til I die! Quote
Sfritr Posted March 10, 2012 Author Posted March 10, 2012 I'm a big Berbatov fan. Smooooth..... Then again, you can't even argue the greatness of Messi (sp?) Quote
