From a spectators perspective you're saying a game of catch is the most interesting part of the sport....


Lol, not gonna bite sorry.

You can get into the art of pitching and how much they actually have to know about each batter and tendencies and all that shit but anyone outside of die hard fans don't see that.

Reminds me of that Movie with the kid that broke his arm. 'He sets, he sets again, and again.' Throwing a ball 90 feet back and forth 130 times shouldn't take 3 hours.

You act like the same doesn't apply to football, where the casual fan sees nothing but the 12 minutes of actual playtime where they follow the ball.

No it doesnt. There is 0 contact in baseball. The most interesting part of baseball is a guy hitting a ball hard enough the other team just concedes it's too far to go get.

I'm a huge fan of basketball. Probably my favorite sport, but it's still broken down into 5 dudes trying to stop 5 other dudes from getting a ball through a small hole. All sports can be broken down into small shit that doesn't really matter, but baseball is the only one that has 0 interesting parts about it.

Uhm yeah you must not watch baseball, excluding the bench clearing brawls and petty fights, there is still "contact"... sliding into bases, outfielders running into eachother, etc. Sure not as much "contact" as the other major sports but you can't seriously say "0 contact".

You won't be disappointed, one of the best single seasons of televison, jadeoshbogosh will vouch. The character acting by McConaughey and Harleson is phenominal.

If you like True Detective check out Fargo too, another really good crime drama.
