Rob, your NY Giants vs All Stars is for sure football. Clearly that refers to the College All Stars playing the NFL Champs.

Baseball's appeal isn't complicated or confusing. It's about the beauty of the game; it's about heroes and family and friends; it's about being part of something larger than yourself, about tradition---receiving it and passing it; and it's about holding on to a bit of your childhood.
