Since this is a u2 thread, I'll at least wade in confrontation. What is it with baseball people enjoy? Yeah, I know "something for everybody"... but when I grew up in the sticks and played LL, I thought it was cool... but then when I moved more urban (10 years ago), BB really got lost for me. Defining moment: Sitting in Camden Yards one summer afternoon about 6 years ago, just reading a paper. No action, players going through motions, steroid ball (recently). At least in the comforts of my own home, this activity cost 50 cents, that summer afternoon was way more than that. Never again.
