First let me start by saying, I love baseball, soccer, hockey, and american football. But every time I see an argument when a football fan belittles baseball and says it is boring, then baseball fans comeback with, "well you just stick to people knocking each others heads off and we we stick to our game of intellect.
Now the last time I checked most (probably 99%) football players spend "at least" one year in college. Where as a majority of baseball players come straight out of high school. Also, a lot of undrafted players coming from other countries come from impoverished lands and have very little education. Now, the NBA is the epitome of stupid, and you see why the league is full of thugs. Just look at their draft policy of the past.
Secondly, as a homage to Bill Walsh, offenses are very sophisticated and takes intellect from players and coaches to efficiently run them. In baseball you pretty much go through the motions. It doesn't take a big brain to swing a bat.
Your Thoughts?
