I used to like to play baseball as a kid, but watching MLB is a bit like watching the grass grow. Here are just 2 reasons:
1. Stupid touchy - feely little meetings between pitcher and manager right in the middle of an inning. Why do fans have to watch some overweight manager waddle out to the pitchers mound, and waste time explaining to his pitcher why he needs to be replaced? If a manager needs to replace a pitcher, he can just send the replacement pitcher in the game and get on with it! Let these 2 carry on their little hand holding session in the dugout. 2. Time wasting arguments. If a manager wants to protest a call, he can file a grievance, or request an officials film review just as they do in the NFL, flapping his jowls at an official in the middle of an inning over a call that will never get overturned is just one of the many reasons people are turning to other sports and MLB is losing attendance.
