I dunno, I accept that baseball is probabaly boring for the casual sports fan...sometimes I get bored watching a blowout game with my team on the losing end. But I love it anyways. There is so much to learn, the game is so deep. If my friends critisize baseball, I usually just laugh it off. But when I take a jab at soccer, people go off the deep end.

It's almost like Soccer is more of a religion to some people than it is a sport.
I agree with you about baseball.
I can't watch a baseball game, but I understand why someone like yourself can.
That's the same way I feel about soccer.

Whether soccer fans are more defensive, maybe? there are a lot of very pationate fans out there. That could be why.
