seriously if you doubt the sports status of baseball you must also consider some other sports non-sports imho, like car racing, you just sit there driving a damn car without even moving your ass and you'd think it pretty much like playing a video game.

Is kick ball the game of choice in the third world because the skill level to play is so low. All
you need to play kick ball is the ability to kick the ball. No skill level in that compared to
other sports. Kick ball fans have more skills in making piss bombs.

The 2014 World Series resumes at San Francisco’s spectacular AT&T Park Sunday night and there won’t be many elementary school kids watching a game that starts past 8 p.m. on the East Coast and ends around midnight. The 2014 San Francisco Giants and Kansas City Royals are putting on a pretty good show, but they lack star power and they are participants in an event that is slowly dying. It really wouldn’t matter if every Series at-bat featured Clayton Kershaw vs. Mike Trout.

Today, the World Series is like “The Ed Sullivan Show,” the Miss America pageant, Timex watches, and sitting in your favorite chair surrounded by a stack of daily newspapers. It’s like “Peanuts.’’ It was once the biggest event in sports. Now it’s a relic of a simpler time before the Worldwide Leader and the World Wide Web. My fantasy baseball world of 1962 has been overthrown by the fantasy baseball (“where you can win millions!”) of 2014.


In 2014, the World Series is your father’s Oldsmobile.


I blame no one. It’s evolution. Baseball is too long and slow for modern attention spans. The games drag, especially with late-inning pitching changes. The glut of games on television and the introduction of interleague play has blurred the identity of the respective leagues and taken away the mystery of star players in faraway lands.


Unfortunately, the average age (according to Nielsen in 2013) of a World Series viewer is 54.4 years old. Five years ago, it was 49.9. Children ages 6-17 account for only 4.3 percent of the World Series TV audience. This is not what you would call a “future.’’


MLB rightfully worries about scheduling any postseason games opposite almighty football (imagine your showcase event getting hammered by “Thursday Night Football”?), but the TV ratings for this Series are bad. Game 1 was the lowest-rated World Series opener of all time, attracting 12.2 million viewers. In 1980, 54 million people watched the Royals and Phillies in a World Series game. A New York Times Page 1 story Friday noted that the United States-Portugal World Cup match this past summer earned a rating twice as large as the first game of this World Series.


Ouch.

0-0 is rare. Basketball would probably be GOAT if it were 1 single Half. But it ultimately falls victim to the same disease as in every American Sport = Commercials. You honestly expect me to sit and watch commercials in 2014?

I grew up on American sports and didn't watch Soccer up until 3 years ago. It is the most exciting sport. You literally keep your eyes on the screen the entire 1st & 2nd Half. No going to the bathroom, no changing the channel during commercial, no texting or answering your phone because it's Point #100 of a 200 point match like in Basketball. At some point Basketball starts feeling like Nascar: 2 hours of the same thing because there is so much scoring. There is no climax in Basketball like a goal in soccer, home run in baseball or even touchdown in football. Which is why every girl I've known has said "Just no Basketball".

I agree the whole no commercial thing, but honestly I would rather watch some of the commercial instead of the backfield pass fest we keep seeing in the game. I mean how exciting can a game really be if a substantial amount of passes are made in the wrong direction. I literally only watch the world cup so I don't know if the club teams are any more aggressive. But, watching some of those world cup matches was similar to what I imagine pre shot-clock era basketball to be like. IMO introducing a shot clock in soccer would seriously boost it's appeal to the american market. And yes I know it's never gonna happen, just like Soccer(Euro leagues)will never trump Football, Baseball, Basketball and NHL in America.

Club matches especially in Champions League are more aggressive than World Cup because there is a smaller talent disparity.

I share your frustration with strategies like Tiki Taka. The only thing I can say to that is, it illustrates the endless strategies that are present in the sport. Having the best Striker doesn't result in Wins like having the best Quarterback or Scorer in Basketball. This shows how simplistic Basketball and Football are.

If Soccer had commercials, I'd probably not watch but at the age of 30 it is bad ass to watch a game without distractions and then go on with my day after an hour and 25 minutes. Far less bitching about fouls and flags. You don't hear fans of losing teams complain about the refs as often as in NBA & NFL.

Maybe kick ball needs a 24 second clock so they will try to score more

It's far more difficult to put the ball into a soccer goal than basketball hoop. It would result in a-lot of violations and thus stoppage time. Plus it would heavily cheapen the Goal, which is the most exhilarating play in team sports.

a kick ball and a basketball are both about the same size but the kick ball goal and the basket are not. In
basket ball you need some skills to get it in the basket. Kick ball is the world game that is so popular in the
third world because you don't need any skills to play........

[Biernutz]

.It proves the skill level by the 0-0 or 1-0 kick ball scores.

A random fan stepping onto an NBA court has an exponentially greater chance of putting the ball into the hoop than a Premier League fan has of stepping onto a gigantic soccer field, maneuvering (WITH HIS FEET) past 10 defenders and then accurately and with enough power getting a shot into the Goal. Oh and there is a Goalkeeper in front of the net too.

Fan could chuck half court shots over LeBron's head and eventually one would fall. This is inconceivable in Soccer.

Actually i illustrated above 3% of EPL games in October finished 0-0. That is the definition of very rare

- Constant commercial breaks
- No limit on substitutions
- Designated hitter

Baseball is centered on pre-pitch decisions. Meaning before the pitch every player already knows where they will run and where they will throw the ball. Game lacks spontaneity
