Players today lack the fundamentals.")
How come no one ever complains that football teams have like 19 coaches on the side lines staring at computer data to determine what plans to run? No one bemoans analytics ruining football.
How come football announcers who are former football players don't spend all game shitting on how the game is played today like John Smoltz and many others? People like Romo actaully seem to enjoy watching the game.
How come?

because football is over in less than 3 hours and isn't a complete bore, like watching 15 K's per game. I'd rather watch the grass grow.
Baseball is a game that has been pussified played by injury prone pussies that can't stay on the field. The umpiring is the worst I ever seen and that's with replay. The plays at home plate are non existent runners are always safe unless you can ridiculously swipe tag the bum. The unwillingness to hit against the shift is just Regoddamndiculous.
As someone who has spent 100's of thousands of dollars on season tickets and had the game in my blood for over 50 years...I can't watch a game. AND I certainly wouldn't go for free.
