I used the uncapps version. I just don't like baseball. It's kind of like paint drying.I'll follow if we win but I'd sell the entire program, past, present, and future for ONE SEC football title. I'd sell it for a basketball onetoo. Baseball is BORING. FYI: I was a student duing the Palmerio, Clark, Thigpen, Brantley era. THAT was fun, but we were winning, esp my Sr. year.

Don't get me wrong, I loved the postseason runs in 2007 and 2011. They were great. But MSU baseball has just never really been the same for me since 2003.</p>

baseball just sucks as a sport. Youngsters tend to agree these days. It's just boring. I've been to manyregionals at MSU, fun as it is it's still just a baseball game. It's not like it is football or basketball.

Do y'all remember the Sosa-McGuire battle for the single season HR crown several years back? That was the only year since the strike I actually watched baseball. My son was6 or 7. He watched it with me and just loved to say "Sami Sosa" in his incredibly cute kid's accent. The next summer we decided we would take him to see Sami Sosa in Atlanta.He was excited beyond belief. We got tickets, reservations for 4 nights at the Embassy Suites in Buckhead, we did it up right for 4 nights with a kid in Atlanta. The game was the last night we were there. We got good seats ($$$), spent $100 for hotdogs and Cokes, and settled into our seats. Sosa was batting third that night. The first two guys got on in the first, Sosa jacked his first pitch out of the park. The kid turned around and said, " I'm ready to go!" We stayed till the 7th but dang he had a point. Neither of us watch baseball today unless MSU is doing great. </p>

I got parked on the Hwy 12 on-ramp, opened the car door, we lost Game 6, closed the car door, and drove back to Brandon.

I do not want to see your dictionary that you're working on because that **** seems queerer than a $3 bill.<div>
</div><div>With that said... I somewhat agree with baseball being a dying sport. I have yet to make a game this year despite me wanting to. Some classes and other arrangements have gotten in the way from me attending a few games here and there. But to go back to your point.. I had always said that I love playing baseball, but watching it is a different thing.</div><div>
</div><div>It's one of those sports where it's easier to chill, take in the scenery and actually enjoy the conversations with your companions while yall have some entertainment on the diamond. Because it's a lot slower, it's harder to get into in comparison to football or basketball. It's one of those sports that whenever I want a change in pace I'll go. I'm not exactly sure if it's going to die out as it's going to remain relevant for a good while at least... but there's no question that fan awareness for the sport has been dwindling for some time now.</div>

College football and basketball are like the minor leagues in baseball, one level below professional. That makes college baseball a step below either of them, hence the lack of interest. So many players go pro out of High School, it really hurts the college game.
