Yawn. Not a huge Baseball fan, hard to get into a sport with over 160 regular season games. Talk about a watered down meaningless regular season. I will pay attention to the playoffs and September usually. Go Braves!

NFL season is about the only time there is action on this board anymore. I miss the glory days of this board.

I don't mind Nascar as much since it is only 36 races. But yes Nascar does have a long calendar season, but physically I think it is the least demanding of the big time sports in America; baseball is the only one that can give it a run for its money in that catagory. And since it is only one race a week I do not mind it as much either, especially since it covers all of the football offseason. Provides nice entertainment on Sunday's in the off season.

my dad started taking me to Reds games when i was a small boy...grew to love the Reds and Johnny Bench, moved on to other players, and then the Colts in 84' moved to Indy...i was 12. that was when i truely discovered my love for football. still loved baseball, but football was #1.

hell, i even modify my dishnetwork bill every baseball season to get the foxcincinnati channel. so now i get to watch most of the games on my days off.

i only really got into Nascar for a few years..and that was just because i was basically forced into a fantasy league. left the league and my interest for Nascar left as well.

Its always a long summer, fall, winter, and spring in Cleveland. Well, maybe this fall may not be so bad, I actually think the Browns *might* just have the talent on their roster to win that division this year. They definitely look to be in much better shape than the Indians and Cavs right now.

You know the Ravens and Steelers are still in that division, right? ^_^

Yeah, but I do not think either of those teams are unstoppable. They are the same Ravens and Steelers that let the Bengals win the division the year before last. The Browns, might just have what it takes to win the division, but that is a big might.

There is always the Flaco and Roethlisberger factors. Flaco might not show up and Big Ben might actually get caught the next time raping some college co-ed.

Rangers, baby!

It's been a long, long, long time for us, and now we finally have a team to be truly proud of. It was actually nice to see folks wearing Rangers shirts during the off-season here. That's never happened before.

Texas is full of fair weather fans, not much of a surprise.

Actually, the increased support probably had a lot to do with Tom Hicks selling the team. I think the Stars would have a bigger following too if they had a different owner. He's incredibly antagonistic towards the fans.

I have a sure fire system to tell when June is here. I just wait until the Royals are mathematically eliminated and I know it must be June. If the Royals keep this up, my June might be coming and little late this year.

Baltimore Orioles!

From way back in the day, when Frank Robinson won the triple crown, Brooks Robinson @ 3rd base. Four twenty-game winners one year. I remember a pitcher, Dave McNally, hitting a grand slam in the 1970 world series.

Of course, I doubt anyone thought I was a bandwagon fan when I said I was an Oriole fan...
