It's important. It's our culture, part of our identity. I don't want to lose it, or see it go down the shitter.

But you're probably right about the mindless masses oohing and ahhing all the dingers on Sports Center's top 10. And sadly, you're probably right that nothing much will change for that exact reason.

I'm not happy to have ignored baseball. It seems like a sport I would really have loved. Perhaps one day if reliable testing methods can assure me that the game is reasonably clean, I will give it a chance. I hope that doesn't make me a "lemming fan".

Anyway, I'll stop shitting on your thread now. That is, unless you decide to start posting some hands
