The winter World Series-should be a law.

Post by GEJ »

Baseball is a summer sport.Right??.To hold the World Series at the same time as the begining of the Football season is just not right.Seems to me the Baseball team owners are doing whatever they can to ring out every dime they can with the number of games they play.Just like the rules of the game,shouldn't sports have gov'ing laws that prevent this very thing??.What ya think??.I think the World Series should be at the latest in Sept.

How about making it a TRUE World Series? Include teams from all over the globe. It would really put North American teams in their place when Tokyo takes the Pennant.

WTF...is this all you guys have to worry about? Who the hell cares when and how the MLB does their sport. Do as I do....DON'T watch the crap. I wish my life was as easy as yours then I would only have to worry about when whatever sport is in season starts or ends. ](*,)

what's baseball? ... I've heard a rumor it's slightly more exciting and fast paced than observing paint dry, grass grow.. or golf? :-k

flipping channels last night my wife stopped on one and said 'phillies won', then kept flicking... if it hadn't been for radio stations on my way to work talking about the hilarious rain delays leading up to last night, i wouldn't have known it was even on 8-[

sorry gary.. haven't had my first coffee of the morning yet.. LOL

I'm right there with ya, crash. I don't mind viewing highlights of the games, but watching the games themselves has all the fascination of lancing a boil.

I like Base Ball just the way it is the only thing I would change is that one day the Cubs would win it all :cry:
