1. I played a little when I was a kid, and rediscovered it this year. (granted, having your fav team make it to the world series, even if they lost when they got there will do that to you).


    I'm hoping to try out for one of the local teams come springtime. I'm not that good, but either are they. I actually hit a ball in my first at bat, in the first game I played in a good 10+ years, but was so shocked, I didn'y hustle for a full three seconds and got out at first. Didn't get any more hits, but I can work on that. For fielding I played first, which sucked, because I had a new glove, and was playing with a pitcher. I'd never worked with before, and the gal playing second kept aiming high.

    I feel I would probally be best at any infield position other than 1st. I'd go with catcher, since it apeals to my inteligence, and I dont really mind pain, but the equipment is expensive. Yes I know first is technically easiest. Having to catch from 3+ other players who all throw from diffrent ranges at diffrent velocieties is not my style. As for the outfield, I'm not fast enough over long distances.
  2. Originally posted by iTim:I suppose the same could be argued for that small minority that finds football boring. Then again, when you have the MLS to watch, I can understand why it's boring.

    I dont really find football boring, but I dont find it intresting either.
  3. I love baseball. Playing it (super amateur level, in the school like Buttons said) and watching it!

  4. Whats your fav team?

    I'm a long time Detroit Tigers fan. After years of being the joke of the AL, there becoming the big threat in their division.
  5. I also recently discovered basketball, but I feel I have less natural talent at it. Baseball I feel if I practice a bit, I should be able to make the local team come springtime.

    Why? Why not?
  6. Now, I love playing basketball.
  7. I don't have a personal favorite, Aaron. I just enjoy watching it whenever the shuffle sports Tv channelcomes in. I can recall watching some Detroit Tiger matches, as well as some Chicago Sox and obviously NY Yankees ones.

    And I do love basketball too, although I've never been too good at playing it. I'm very good when shooting, but very bad at movements, tactics and defending haha
  8. Fun fact for yah. Outside of New York the Yankees are almost universally hated in the states. Largely because instead of just bringing up there own players, they just offer insane contracts to whoever the best players are on the market.


    Karmas coming back to bite them in the ass though. Having so many players over 30 on long contracts is a bad idea.

    I think next year will be the year Detroit crushes the world series.
  9. Settling down for the night by listening to Boy.

  11. Not my fault the Blue Jays have horrible luck.
