Have fun with your prissy little basketball.
"Oh No! The other nigger stepped on my foot. Lets stop all play and stand around for 60 second while we decide who is to blame."
Lamest sport ever.

Because baseball is so fucking action packed? There may be less flow in baseball than football. College basketball > any other sport that gets consistent airtime on ESPN or other major stations.

you know why black people love basketball?
It's a sport where all you do is run, shoot, and steal.

Look on the bright side, now you can pay attention to hockey

I experience serious football withdrawal this time of year. Regular season baseball and hockey just doesn't do it for me. Playoff races are a different story. I have been getting into NBA again though. I'll always watch a Raptors game.

How people find any sport at all more wonderful than baseball is a mystery to me.

Baseball's a good sport, but there are so many games that any given one has such a small bearing on the whole season, I don't want to spend three hours on it. Compare that to football, where every game (nay, every snap) is HUGE HUGE HUGE for both teams, right from the start.
Playoff/late-season baseball is fantastic though.

Humans thrive on competition, in one form or another. To have an advanced organization was probably something people hundreds of years ago couldn't imagine. It's a shame about American footballs' history in gambling, taking a less honorable position in the sports' development. The sports players, on the other hand, have a beautiful showing of the human spirit.

Egh... have you SEEN the game? I know being sentimental about it won't help, but come on dude! Just 'cause you might not like it doesn't mean you have to put something down you might actually enjoy.

No I've never seen it. I only have been to 10 OSU football games including last year when OSU 1 beat Mich 2.
I enjoy football games, but not my favorite sport to watch.

Well not to lose my original point, but the way most professional sports pray on their fans is depressing. The fan, who's participation is what keeps money lining the pockets of false idols and their hirelings, is placed lowest on the ladder. And soon, just to watch will cost you more than just your time. Can you believe that some people watched the super bowl just for the commercials!!! Has product placement TOTALLY warped our perceptions on time honored institutions?

Because of the buzz surrounding the Super Bowl, there are always millions of people who watch it even if they don't like football. Advertising is very expensive, so usually the commercials are well-done and entertaining. We're not warped, we just all know what we like.

Well soon enough it'll be just like Demolition Man where people are entertained by jingles and slogans alone. Have you seen idiocracy with luke wilson? Yeah, we'll be that.

So you have seen it....Well.......scientists are PRETTY focused on the ole' penis enlargement and hair replacements. I think Joe Rogan said it best "that if there were pills to make your cock bigger, then guys would walk their cocks around in shopping carts, losing blood to their heads just to have the biggest fucking cock around!" Yeah, some humans are THAT shallow. Lol!
