19. Theres more action in baseball than football.
How much of the actual elapsed or general time is actually action packed in football?
Lets see, they stand in a huddle, line up, run a 3 second play, move the chains, huddle again, call time out, huddle again, line up, run a 3 second play...
I love football but its really not as exciting as people say it is.

15. I like both equally, actually.
Since they are during different parts of the year. When football starts, however, (and becasue they Twins will most likely miss the post season this year) I will turn my attention to the hapless Vikings. I am a glutton for punishment.

22. I'm a die hard fan but I've got three words: Not Gonna Happen
Twins have good pitching, sketchy relief word as of late, a 7 headed infield and a farm club offense. Plus one of their biggest bats in Torii Hunter for probably the rest of the year. It will be Oakland.

And if it can't be the Twins, anyone other than the Yanks will do.

6. I couldn't care less about baseball.....
Edited on Mon Aug-01-05 03:17 PM by OneTwentyoNine
And this is from a guy who played for 10 years when growing up and really followed St.Louis back in the 60's.

Now its a shitload of WAY overpaid cry babies that only have these incredible records because of all the shit they pump in their bodies--check the headline on CNN today.

No salary cap means guys like Steinbrenner just keep buying the best of the best. Teams like KC Royals should just shut it down and call it quits,they can't compete with that kind of money. Hell Damon was on the Royals not all that many years ago.

I'll take the NFL over baseball. At least they have a salary cap and the Super Bowl really is up for grabs by any NFL team on any given years. Meanwhile back at the World Series its NY,Boston,Atlanta,St.Louis year in year out blah,blah,blah....
