The Mitchell report

[BleedBurgundy]

I hate baseball, so whatever contributes to its downfall is fine with me. Personally, I never understand how so many people had such strong feelings for such a boring ass game. Now, if the NBA can just have similar misfortune, we can worry about getting more soccer coverage stateside!

So you want to replace a boring sport with one that is even more boring to watch.
Was this report paid for by tax payers of MLB? I heard it cost 65mil.

I could watch a futbol every day. Have you ever watched any of the better european clubs for a full match? I used to live in Italy, the team that the town I was in followed was Juventus. Their kits were black and white striped (like a referee). I can't tell you how cool it was to sit in a local bar with 90+ italians jammed in watching a match on tv, the whole place in team colors. yeah, there's not always alot of scoring, but that's what makes the goals and near misses so exciting. You can feel the pressure build, the momentum swing and the drama of each miss so much more than in NFL games, at least to me. So, yes, I would GLADLY replace roidball and basketball.
