Agreed, but I disagree with your spectators comment. Yes, they make a ridiculously disgusting amount of money, but if people don't like it, no one is forcing them to watch. There's something cool about the throwback sports (baseball, boxing) because its not all action all the time. We're so used to getting things NOW NOW NOW, that its nice to see the strategy unfold. In my opinion.
@baseballguy2186 Dude, don't even bother with the non-baseball people, I've tried. Nothing against them but they just don't get it. You either love it or you're everyone else as far as I'm concerned. The same way I don't understand(although I can appreciate) the fans of soccer is the same way people don't get one's love of baseball. You need to be a fan to understand all the wonderful nuances of the game. The game within the game.
This is funny. But Certex. Dude. Don't ever call the sport of baseball irrelevant. You live in Chicago. Baseball is more of a religion in that city than any other sport. Baseball is American, through and through. You may not enjoy the sport but it is a majestic game and for us Americans, it is part of our culture. Has been for 170 years and this country is only 234 years old.
@IrishBobABG i'm an american and i agree that baseball is the horse shittiest game and has fans that say things like "it is a majestic game". people end up just associating it with their stupid childhood, hanging out with dad, when in actuality there is like 10 minutes worth of in game play for one three hour long game. my dad took me to games and i was just annoyed that i had to stand up to cheer and sit down at the same time as everyone else the whole time. it's like going to fucking church
@nickypeeps You may not like it but that doesn't mean it is a shit game just because you aren't a fan. Watch "BASEBALL" by Ken Burns. This will help you realize that your opinion doesn't mean dick to those who find comfort, solace, and escape in America's past time.
@IrishBobABG you just completely exemplified my point. you're the person I'm talking about, and you referred to a documentary about the people I'm talking about, made for the people I'm talking about
@baseballguy2186 i played baseball my entire stupid childhood. it's boring because in a three hour long game, the ball is actually in play for something like ten or fifteen minutes. it's boring in the same sense that UFC showed people how insane it is to watch a twelve round boxing match of two idiots shuffling around a ring, giving each other the stink eye for an hour. sure, there's an art to it, but have some fucking consideration for the spectators
Come see Jim Jeffries LIVE at The Lakeshore Theater in Chicago for its last show! He is performing next week! For the last 3 years, The Lakeshore Theater has been comedians favorite venue to perform at in Chicago......Dont miss this legendary event! It is going to be insane!
This is fucking HILARIOUS. I stay in Chicago, and am foreign, and hate and laugh at baseball, and his irreverence towards the irrelevance of the sport is SPOT FUCKING ON. Great stuff.
LOL wonder how many brews he had before this video.

if he's irreverent towards the irrelevance wouldn't that make him more of less, reverent towards the relevance?
