baseball

I was wondering what peoples views on it were?

It seems to me that although the sport is taking off all over the world especially in Asia it will never make it on these shores. I just think its a far better sport than cricket and it really is a cheap day out for all the family. I would love to see it do well over here.

rounders is fun when you belt the person with the bat because they were standing too close to you

Baseball... hate it watching on TV. very very dull

BUT watching it LIVE at a game is so much different than watching it on TV. Have seen the Angels play in Oakland in 2005 and had a blast

To be honest that is really what i meant, i caught a game live over in the states and it was a great day out. If im being totally honest ive not watched much of it on tv due to the lack of coverage.

If you want to watch LIVE Baseball: sometimes they broadcast games on Channel 5. Or subscribe to NASN (part of Setanta). Or you could watch online on MLB.tv

MLB.TV - Watch Live Out-of-Market Baseball, TV-Quality Streaming Video | MLB.com: Subscriptions

A friend of mine subscribed mlb.tv and is very happy with that service.

A very very boring game. Fuck all happens and only a few players are involved all the time.

Red Sox fan here! myp2p has baseball on their schedule lists sometimes. Usually right when the games are starting you can find links for them.
