Seriously, who cares?
Numbers I read in the Globe this morning, it may not have been this morning's Globe and Mail but I read it this morning, stated that 14 million Americans watched game one of the World Series between St. Louis and Texas. 34 million watched game one back in '73 in a nation with a lot less TVs. Tell you how long ago that was: many of us had Black and White TVs. Yeah, I know, wtf is a Black and White TV. Ask grandma.
Baseball isn't going anywhere but it has become a regional sport, very big where it is big but get away from the centres where it is played and nada. I am in Ottawa and no buzz, no hats, no nothing. The vibe for the the NBA and NCAA hoop finals is always out there. Ditto the various soccer championships. Baseball, a thing of the past.
