Loved baseball as a child (rootin for hometown Astros in the '80s and 90s. Live in Boston now, so have to contend with astronomical prices to attend a game in person. I'd rather buy a $200 pre-war card over dropping that dough to go to Fenway park. That said, I watch many games on tv (mostly to keep track of my AL only fantasy baseball players).

Someone nailed it w/r/t the announcers (Esp. on FOX). The playoffs just suck b/c of joe buck and Tim mccarver. Ugh. I correct them constantly and then 5 minutes later when their statistician tells them they're wrong, they correct themselves and I have to chuckle. My wife always says that it was my calling to do their job. Oh well-- maybe in my next life.

But yeah I'm a baseball junkie, but mostly b/c I love stats (I don't have a favorite team, so it comes down to players on my fantasy roster, nothing more).
