Usually the only thing I agree with tdw on is the fact that Red Square just doesn't look the same. In this case, I do agree that baseball can be boring, unless it is on the radio or you are at the game. Watching baseball, or golf, on TV is to ruin the game for the viewer. Radio announcers are much better as they have to describe what is going on. A TV announcer, for a baseball game, is a waste of time as everything you need to know is right in front of you and they never identify the woman in the stands with the big cantalopes and the thin T-shirt!
But, if one is doing a project the pace of the game is perfect. You can concentrate on your project and just sort of absorb the game. You can't do that with other sports, where you are always saying, "what happened?"
