Bearded Kirklander Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 I kind of don't like interleague play and wish they would stop doing it. I also think that pitchers should have to face pitchers from the other team, in part because if you head hunt, you should expect retaliation. But also because I think it makes the game better and more interesting. Anybody else think the designated hitter should be gotten rid of? Same with Interleague play?

ChicoCahill Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 get rid of both, totally agree, it was great when the world series was played by two teams that have never played each other Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRoling Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 No, I disagree, Interleague Play is great for cities that have a few teams, it makes for some great rivalries. Baseball should have got rid of the DH when it began. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxikk Veteran Posted June 12, 2004 Veteran Share Posted June 12, 2004 ok. dont hate me. but baseball is a shxt game anyways. every other sport has teams that play interleague. it adds some dynamics to the game. i mean, i RARELY watch baseball anymore, but if they did away with this, it would just be dumb.

IlliniPi Posted June 13, 2004 Share Posted June 13, 2004 Doing away with DH: :yes: Doing away with interleague play: :no: There's nothing better than watching some of the great rivalries clash, especially going to see the Cubs/Sox series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRoling Posted June 13, 2004 Share Posted June 13, 2004 Exactly, my Cubbies agains the South Siders is great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlliniPi Posted June 13, 2004 Share Posted June 13, 2004 A Cubs fan from Normal? I hope I get to see another fan fight when I go to this series. There's always a handful every game. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRoling Posted June 13, 2004 Share Posted June 13, 2004 LOL, the misconception of Cubs fans in Chicago is that south of Chicago is Cardinals country, lol, there are probably 90% Cubs fans here on the Illinois State University campus, the bars are packed with Cubs fans, the campus is packed with Cubs fan, it's ridiculous. I think I shall email Steve Stone and straighten him out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get further south, and there are more card fans....but lots of Cub fans in the twin cities here.....(Bloomington/Normal) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearded Kirklander Posted June 13, 2004 Author Share Posted June 13, 2004 It is good to see we agree on DH at least. :) Maybe I should give Interleague play more thought though. I guess I was being selfish, and forgetting how fun it can be to see other teams for a change. Thanks for the debate. It's fun. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
