Keep in mind that the Braves are currently the hottest team in the NL East, anyway.

You better not dis my main man Tori Hunter. He has 20 home runs in the AL and will have about 45 by season's end.

Tesseract Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 Originally posted by lawtai baseball's a sport that's slowly dying. Yep, unfortunately, particularly because it costs an arm and a leg to get tickets to attend a game. :( It's all becuase of these players that want money.

lawtai Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 if baseball ends up going on strike again this year, it'll really kill the sport. and with ppl like bond's making comments as such that it's not his fault that he needs to get paid 100+ million dollars a year just to hit a baseball, doesn't help.

The sport of baseball was supposed to be for the family to enjoy. Now a common joe and his family cannot afford to attend a MLB game because of the expensive ticket prices. It is ridiculous that this sport is turning into a "let's pamper the players" sport where the athletes are payed all they want and their loyal fans have to pay for it. It's sad IMO. :( Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/36609-mlb-home-run-derby-and-all-star-game/#findComment-362217 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gator Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 Baseball may have it's bad years but it will never die. Trust me. Hell, the NBA will die long before the MLB does. Go to a game in New York, Bostin, Cleaveland, Chicago....and many others and I dare you to come back here and say Baseball is dying.
