I know its the politics board but we have some mlb fans here and i wanted you to get your opinion on yhis rule change concerning extrainning games. The last guy out in say inning nine is put on second at the start of the extra inning(s).
My question what in the hell are they doing to this great game? Why we don't want them to overexert i guess.
I am so disgusted heck I'm not a big believer in the dh but it is somwhat acceptable though i think it makes players one dimensional. Butthis extra inning rule is bs even if its temporary
Yall are free to move if you want

Also--a double header will now consist of 2 games of 7 innings each--not 9 innings as normal. That "man on second" to start an extra inning is pathetic. PRO sports-baseball, funnyball and nba are watered down versions of years ago. they can all kneel and degrade the flag and country--and hopefully go BROKE doing it. rr being china Flu safe, wearing a mask at DD rr  |

If people stop going to see NBA and NFL and Baseball then all these knee droppers can get a job laying carpet and can be on their knees all day.
Either that or work a glory hole at a local p orno shop.

Butthis extra inning rule is bs even if its temporary Yall are free to move if you want For years, we have heard speed the game up. It's to slow. I'm guessing they will use covid as the excuse, but there's other ways to speed the game up. No more "human rain delays at the batter's box. Make the pitcher throw the ball instead of "psyching" hitters and base runners. Limit throws to 1B. If there's a few more stolen bases, so what? Base running is exciting. Less time between innings. Old school umps used to make players speed things up because a lot of stadiums didn't have lights. Don't like the DH, never will, but it's probably going to stay in the NL. I don't like the "home run" craze which results in a lot of walks and strike outs. Plays in the field and doubles and triples are exciting. The longest standing O I've ever seen was for a play Ozzie Smith made on defense. |

Thank the Lord that people at least many on this board agree on this watering down a great game.
Folks are paid literally millions or minimum many hundreds of thousands to play fewer games and not really develop all around skills but hey dont want to play em too much in a short season. One would think that this season pitchers of skill will have all time best numbers with no late season fatigue.
BTW watched a fourth quarter of rockets and mavs they had virtual fans fan noise and pics. Almost 300 pts scored not much d . Sorry it aint bball without us dumbass fans. They didn't even have the decency to cut fan noise and let us hear on court communication and yes cursing. The communication on floor would have been educational for all and fun to listen to. But then we are fans they could care less.
For our blue i would like to have the floor miked would be great

Not having fans there is just glorified scrimmage games if you ask me, if people can fly on planes together they can cheer at games together. Then they can all go to Walmart and buy a video of what america was like before the Communist revolution.
The fans add the tension and atmosphere to affect play. The games are BOGUS without em.
Just another bastardization of society akin to letting guys in ladies bathrooms.

Riley you are right we want to be entertained not have self righteous playes pontificating on thing most of them know nothing about. They dothis crap in the nba and yet are tied in tight with china Guys please just play thats why we watch you want to pontificate do it on your own nickel not mine you dont want to play because of injustice fine dont play dont expect to get paid. These young men and kids need to learn its entertainment. Owners need to understand we can do without the professional sport. Hell fishing is the most popular sport in the us. Players i respect your abilities hell in a way we pay for them. I also respect your choices but dont try and hold me hostage cause you think you have all the cards. You dont play ok you play ok owners pay your salary if you dont play good on ya owners suggest you dont hold fans hostage to pay for that |

When I was a kid, I had a baseball card of Eddie Yost. He played MLB for 18 years. It told on the back of the card that he sold appliances for Sears in the off season. These poor modern athletes have it so rough. NFL and NBA have already lost me. MLB better be careful or they might be next.
