If any of you really understood the greatness of baseball. But that's fine. That probably speaks to you looking for instant this and instant that. You watch your little marathon BS professional playoff formats. I'll watch the best game ever created. And I know I'll come out ahead.

I'm watching Baseball Tonight right now. Yes!

played baseball when i was younger and will always love it. at this point in the season of prof sports, it's the last thing i wanna watch. it has gotten increasingly boring for me though and with all the steroid [deleted] going on, all those baseball greats i used to worship when i was younger are frauds. i have really taken to soccer as well and that's pushed baseball to dead last on me keeping up with it...im a huge ducks fan too so im stoked for the playoffs since i can catch a couple games at the aac...ducks in 6?

Dorsey, Dozier, Taggart will need to keep out of foul trouble bc Kansas is deep and athletic team in terms of big men. By attacking the basket and interior of Memphis's defense early, Kansas could weaken Memphis's interior D and rebounding.

Kansas came out and got Memphis bigs into foul trouble, subsequently owning the boards and points in the paint. CDR should have hit 1 of 2 free throws and this would have been a non issue but not having Dorsey in OT hurt.

All in all a great game to watch.

Baseball and golf are the two most unwatchable sports. Fun to play (I guess if you have nothing else to do), but agonizing for the spectator. I grew up in the Nintendo/Atari generation and I need something that moves... at all.

My sports rankings are as follows:
1) College Football
1a) NFL Football
2) Hockey
3) College Basketball
4) NBA Basketball
.

98 ) Soccer
99) Baseball
100) Golf

Stars in OT in 7.

Got to disagree 68. I will watch replays of a 1962 golf tourney (and yes I am looking forward to this weekend to watch the Masters on HD) before I will ever watch another live NBA game. I will say that I used to watch golf all the time but now do find it boring if Tiger is not playing. It is just a different event when he is there.

sure, I guess highlights of Tiger are cool, but watching it live is like watching flies copulate. Sorry, it bores me to tears. I'd rather go mow my lawn (insert UT education/job status joke here).

If you can not get excited by fly copulation then there really is a major generation gap here.
