Why were you trying to get tickets? Isn't golf better on TV?
Just like baseball, it's just an expensive excuse to be outside.

I think baseball is slightly better live
People just go to sit outside and talk with friends. That's why people don't watch the World Series. People don't like baseball. People like being outdoors and seeing fireworks and eating food.

Baseball sucks. It's almost as bad as hockey. Almost.

There is a percentage of people who are like that.

For me, its slightly better live, but I love a good baseball broadcast


Although, Id say you're doing the same thing as JORR when he brings up gambling, fantasy etc.

Being outdoors in the summer is just one of baseball's many good things.

It's easy to watch baseball in the middle of the summer when nothing else is going on and you want to spend time outside. However those "true fans" mostly ignore the playoffs unless their team is in it. Baseball is just a way to pass the time until television shows come back in the fall.

I'm not trolling. I'm just discounting the good things about baseball and making broad generalizations about fans of the sport once I have decided that certain reasons to like something should be ignored to figure out what a "true fan" is.

Because I've learned in the thread that I'm not a "real fan" unless I watch it live. I really want to be a fan of the Masters Tournament, not just a TV show.


Where in the thread did you "learn" that?

Do you not understand that making an effort to obtain a difficult ticket goes far beyond simply and happily watching a TV show?

Oh, so it's about the effort and "want to". Got it. Still trying to wrap my head around everything.

People who now order tickets online are lesser fans than those who stand in line.

I'm not sure what you did with Ivan this week, but you have my heart felt thanks.

Can I make you an apple pie or something?
