The best cricket player of all time is a 5'5" Indian. If you're implying Paki Paddle takes more skill, you'd be wrong.

Only DH's and 1st basemen are typically fat.

Baseball really is a sport you'd have to grow up playing to appreciate. Hitting a 90mph pitch or curve ball that breaks 2 feet is much more difficult than running around a field kicking a ball and diving to the ground for free kicks.

a guy throws a ball and some fag tries to hit it with a piece of wood. Don't care if he is paki, kiwi, indi, or some fat ass American it's all the same thing: total faggotry. The only thing American cricket has is that the game only lasts 4 hours instead of 4 days.

I agree. Basketball is getting out of hand with this faggy bullshit (which was influenced by European players).

Even though, no athletes are as theatrical as soccer players. They're far, far worse than basketball players on average. The World Cup was unwatchable at times because of it. Players tripping over their own feet and then grabbing their face like they just been shot.

Pitchers aren't typically overweight, though. You're cherry picking.

Neither really are 1st basemen, but they tend to be bigger on average.

I liked and followed baseball during the steroids era, it was exciting and full of great stars/rivalries, etc..

I lost interest a few years ago, though, I find it boring now and it's lacking in big names/stars IMO..

Pelicans78
07-16-2014, 07:14 AM
I used to enjoy baseball much more in the pre-steroid era since home runs actually meant something since pitchers were much more dominant. But its true that stars make the sport. I grew up rooting for Dale Murphy and George Brett which made it easier to root for their teams even though the Braves were horrible in the 80s. The only baseball I watch now is the Royals online and whenever I catch an Astros game live which is maybe once a year. Otherwise the interest isn't there overall like it was in the 80s and 90s.

Truth be told, nowadays its hard for me to get into a sport overall if my team isn't doing well with the exception of college football. I can watch college football anytime.

Thats's not really fat. Also basketball players get a little belly fat over the offseason. When I was on vacation in Croatia I saw Boki Nachbar and he looked pretty fat, looked way, way worse than Diaw and then 2 weeks later when he was with his national team on preperations for the European Championships he had a 6 pack and looked like a different guy.
