"To everything its season..." Ecclesiastes. Spring and Summer, can't get enough baseball. In years when my team, the Boston Red Sox are successful and get into the post-season, baseball stays in the forefront as long as they are in it. In years like this one, where the Patriots are on a tear, they occupy my attention on Sunday afternoon. As football is only one game a week and has about as many games in a season as a busy two week period in August for a major league baseball team, there is room in any fan's life for both baseball and football.

Football its the NY Jets.....BaseBall its the NY Yankees....Football is a more intense sport in the sense that the season is much shorter than baseball.....You loose the first 9 games in football your season is over....In football weather is not a factor the game is played rain sleet snow bitter cold or intense heat the game goes on...Where as in baseball you loose a couple of games the team can still rebound get hot and still can make the post season....If the weather is not perfect the game may get postponed or delayed called......

I would have to say baseball. It is the all-American past-time. It is a lot easier to understand.
There are too many 'backs' in football: quaterbacks, line backers, touch backs etc. (I'm not even sure if half of these were actually real football terms or ones I have made up).
Bottom line is that I have always wanted to understand football, and I have given it many, many chances. But I don't get it. And I don't really get the appeal either. It just seems like a lot of wasted time goes on during the course of a football game. (Okay, run! Okay, jump all over each other! Okay, now STOP! Okay, now everyone go back to this line and get back in formtation! Okay, TIMEOUT! Okay, run again! Oh, no! A Yellow Flag! Everyone STOP again!)

I love both for various reasons. Football is at the top, but baseball is right there with it. Football is better because the schedule sets it up perfectly. You get it on the weekend and rarely during the week. Then you miss it. The season happens so quickly and then you miss it. Baseball just goes on all year long just about. Football does a better job of giving you just enough and then leaves you wanting more.
NY Mets & NY Giants/FSU Noles here. Odd mix, yes, I became a Noles fan after moving to FL in the 80s and started watching college ball.

Just depends. I can't stand watching bad football with a lot of penalties and game stoppage, but football played at it's highest level is the best sport out there. The best thing about baseball is though you do not always have to watch for it to be good, it is the perfect sport for radio and it just makes time go by.

I love all sports but in baseball I am a Yankee fan and in football a Raider fan. Now when it comes down t it if I had a chance to watch my Yankees or Raiders I'm watching the Yankees hands down I love a great baseball game.

Baseball is the most difficult sport there is to play and in the the proper circumstances the most exciting sport there is to watch
There no football equivalent to the excitement of the bottom of the 10 th inning in Game 6 of the 1986 World Series.The inninhg the ended with Mookie Wison's incredible 10 pitch AB

Baseball, NY Yankees.
Everybody has played some form of baseball, even if just having a catch with a friend. I'm from NYC, we must have played 500 different games, with a ball, when I was growing up, and 495 was some kind of baseball (stick ball, stoop ball, kickball, wall ball, curb ball, etc).

Football -- it is packaged in a neat season of one game per week; with the action true reality TV at its most compelling; and at the pro & college levels, it seems as if "any given game" may just provide an upset of the year....it truly is America's Game.
