Agree on the baseball. Live baseball is amazing.
NFL, on the other hand, is not that good live. The vast majority of the viewing angles in the stadium don't give you a good perspective on what's happening, and on top of it, there's more stoppage time for commercials than what I consider reasonable. Sure the atmospheres can be great and the stadiums a spectacle, but overall, the game is made for television.
