Ever notice how...(re: baseball's popularity)

[Maluma]

its PRIME was 1998-2001 when home run chases were a given and the yankees were going to the world series every year?


and how ever since 2004, since the red sox have won the world series 3 times and no one can hit, baseball has fallen the fukk off the map?


Makes you wonder sometimes




Almost like the Red Sox single-handedly killed baseball

Baseball died when Griffey Jr. retired.

It's too bad his son is a football player

yeah, it's getting back on track now because the red sox are awful again and the yankees are good again...surprise surprise.

OP is right baseball peaked from 98-04 it was similar to wrestling and attitude era. The Sox winning world series in 04 was like wrestlemania 17. People forget how crazy it was in 03 when both the cubs and red sox had a legit shot to play for WS.
