So how is it I keep hearing baseball is a “dying sport”, “too slow and boring”, and “on its way out”?

Maybe reports of the sport’s demise are premature!

Those idiots keep confusing "baseball" for "basketball" the true “dying sport”, “too slow and boring”, and “on its way out” league.

It would be instructive to breakdown those numbers….determine where the growth is…

Major cites, big markets…..?

Unreasonable to think a small market like Stl..is going to match that
