"Play the right way." "Act like you've been there before." smh

exactly. baseball acting like they some prestige harvard or yale that u have to act and dress a certain way..

more importantly the decline of the black athlete is really killing them.. there lack of marketing to urban areas is the reason nobody cares also.

games are over 3 hours long so the average casual fan isn't going to sit through it and that's where you get the ratings from. i love baseball but i'll admit that 1 game can take up half of your day sometimes and there's a lot of shyt i rather do than spend half of my day watching any sports, unless it's a chill day like sunday then i'll have no problem with that.

Ive never thought of this angle.

Its weird because baseball is dying nationally but is strong as fukk locally. Dont think they care that much though.

average NFL games are over 3 hours and have less action than MLB games.

because baseball old timers are ruining baseball.

dudes get upset over my boy puig celebrated a triple by dancing after hitting a ball..

people today want to see players be outside the norm of the game like a bonds or ricky henderson who use to be smooth when he hit the ball or run the bases.

Baseball needs work but they are like the last sport now behind nfl, nba and even hockey especially hockey playoffs

:heh:

NBA finals without Lebron do hockey numbers, only with him in it do they even match world series ratings they still arent blowing it away at all

And on a local level baseball crushes nba

This is Baseball's Marquee Teams and they gettin destroyed in ratings.

face it breh, MLB is struggling behind MLS for 3rd place
