Why don't you like Baseball?

Edit: it is a long time between now and Spring training in April though.

Its incredibly boring and the least athletic game (not sport) there is. Any activity where Prince Fielder or any of the other fat dudes is considered elite cannot be a sport.

If I'm in better shape than the professional 'athletes' there's a major problem there.

And I've heard all the arguments...'Can you hit a 95mph fastball? ', etc. Well, no, I can't. But then again I didnt grow up in a country where my only way out of my hut was to learn that skill.

There is absolutely nothing impressive in baseball outside of pitching.

I'll disagree with you there. Watching baseball is bland, I admit it but playing it is another story. The pros make it look easy. Which they should, after all they're pros. It's really not the hitting the 95 mph fastball that's hard. I use to play up until my junior year in high school and you could put me in a 90 mph cage and give me 1 pitch to get accustomed to it and I'll hit the 90 mph all day long. You learn to adapt to the speed really fast.

The hard part is hitting the 80 mph curveball that comes after the fastball. It's weird as hell seeing the ball come up about 3/4ths of the way to you, you start your swing, and it suddenly just disappears on you. That's the hard part. Or the hitting the 95 mph fastball after you're waiting for the 80 mph curveball. The ball is already by you by the time you start to swing. There's also more mind games than you think. The pitcher is constantly trying to out think the hitter every pitch he throws. Throwing a pitch that the batter just doesn't expect is all it takes to get someone out. But it's a lot harder when the batter can adapt to it pretty quickly. And even then its hard. At 85-90 mph you barely have any time to react to it. You basically have to decide what pitch is coming at you, whether it's a ball or a strike, whether you're going to swing, and actually swing all faster than you can blink your eye. I'm not arguing with you that it's a bland game to watch because it is.

But playing it is a lot of fun. I use to pitch and threw about 85-87 consistently before I had to give it up after suffering a fracture in my back and having to choose between giving it up or possibly making the fracture worse and never being able to walk again.

P.S. yes I'll agree with you the big guys are kinda gay to watch because they're terribly out of shape and all they do is hit the ball far but I like watching the players like pedroia or jeter who can do everything really well.
