Attention all baseball fans. If you would like to join a semi serious fantasy baseball leauge it would really be a big help. Our league needs at least 12 people in it and we are short a few teams. So if you would like to join go to Yahoo.com and sign up. The leauge name is Mo Pho Plz and the number is 245291 and the password is baseball. You can check it out. It is a free leauge. If you want to sign up it will be a big help, it should be a lot of fun. Thank you.
I am new to these forums and I am finding them very helpful. If you have any questions regarding the league just let me know on the forums.

Top 10 reasons why moonie should love baseball:

10. Canada actually has two "professional" (term used loosely)teams to root for.
9. There is no ice and snow--the games are played in the summer when it is nice and warm so moonie can wear tank tops to the games!
8. There are no cheerleaders for moonie to compete with.
7. There's no glass between the fans and the players.
6. There is plenty of alcohol being served throughout the game
5. These guys are no sissies--they're playing "hardball".
4. There are no pads--the men's uniform are tight and form fitting.
3. There are plenty of curves, sliders, and knuckle balls :eek:
2. Every participant is required to have his own long hard stick. :eek:

and the No. 1 reason moonie should love baseball:

The men are trying like hell to get to first, then second, then to third base with the ultimate goal of "sliding in for a score" :eek:

:D

They suck...as does baseball
9. There is no ice and snow--the games are played in the summer when it is nice and warm so moonie can wear tank tops to the games!
While moonie in a tanktop is excellent...there are better places than a ball game
8. There a no cheerleaders for moonie to compete with.
Moonie doesn't 'compete'...she wins.
7. There's no glass between the fans and the players.
That's because the only danger in baseball is falling asleep and getting a sunburn
6. There is plenty of alcohol being served throughout the game
Like it matter what event it is, if it's in Canada, there is booze
5. These guys are no sissies--they're playing "hardball".
...ROFL...baseball players ARE sissies!
4. There are no pads--the men's uniform are tight and form fitting.
That's because there is no contact...they are sissies ;)
3. There are plenty of curves, sliders, and knuckle balls :eek:
I have no comment
2. Every participant is required to have his own long hard stick. :eek:
The participants sticks in hockey are about twice as long
and the No. 1 reason moonie should love baseball:

The men are trying like hell to get to first, then second, then to third base with the ultimate goal of "sliding in for a score" :eek:
In hockey they beat the crap out of the other players for a chance to score...it's more entertaining!
Can you say suckup? Geez Gibble--we'll need a crow bar to disengage your nose from moonie's arse!

:D

I HATE baseball. It's a stupid game. I'll play it if I must, but I'd rather play soccer, hockey, football, anything but stupid baseball...it's just too damn boring.
Well, you see Gibble, baseball is called the "thinking man's" game and that's becaus there are so many more little intricacies and strategies involved in the game then other sports such as football, hockey, soccer, etc. The problem is you don't understand them. It takes a long time to fully understand and appreciate baseball. You don't have to have played it, but it helps.

Knowing the intelligent person you are, you would, if you put enough time into it, grow to love baseball for the cerebral aspects of it.

I'll admit it is slow paced, but that's part of the enjoyment of it. This is a game you can watch in an easy chair with a breeze coming through the window on a nice summer day dozing on and off. And being at the game is really special. Outside in the cool night air, smell of hotdogs and peanuts and all the other things that are so uniquely baseball that you just don't have in any other sport.

BTW--a hockey/soccer fan is on weak foundation calling baseball boring. There is very little if any drama in football, soccer or hockey. The game is pretty much decided by the end of the time period and only if the game is very close in score will the outcome not be a foregone conclusion. Baseball--entirely different. A team can be down by 6, 7 runs--whatever going into the bottom of the 9th and the entire game can change. No other major sport has that kind of drama because they are all based on time--if time runs short, there is nothing a team can do. No so in baseball. It ain't over till its over [as Yogi Berra would say! ;)]

PS--moonie, when I say "Yogi Berra", I'm talking about a famous baseball player not a picknick stealin four legged creature with claws and teeth! ;)

But some of Moonies priorities are questionable

Not really--she uses it primarily on you, so I would say she has her priorities straight! ;)

You have to do just as much thinking in hockey/soccer, the difference is, you have a split second to do it in. do I bunt, go for a home run, hit a sac fly...etc the difference is, you have alot of time to make that decision. In hockey, you have an instant to decide, keep the puck, deke, shoot, pass, or dump it in. And you have to coordinate line changes on the fly...in a manner that doesn't get your team caught with it's pants down (so to speak)
You don't understand what I mean by "thinking". Thinking can't be done is split seconds, those are reactions more than anything--instincts if you will--some players have them, some don't . As I said, you don't know baseball, so it is impossible for you to conceive of what I mean. Only someone very knowledgeable about the game will undestand what I'm talking about.

In terms of popularity, the number of fans of the respective sports speaks volumes, my frozen friend.
Well, lets not let this go any further--seems some tempers are flaring. My suggestion is we just drop the debate and get back to moonie, tank tops, and beer! ;)

PS--Gibble, the one thing you can never argue is that hockey is better for chick viewing. Summer games bring the babes out in all kinds of skimpy outfits at the ball games--haven't ever seen that at a hockey game! ;)
