Why A Long Season Is A Good Thing
A lot of people I talk to think that the baseball season is too long. “It’s just sooo boring” they bemoan. “How do you keep up with it all” they ask incredulously. One hundred and sixty two games before 4 rounds of playoffs if you count the wildcard one game playoff. As opposed to say football, which consists of 16 games in 17 weeks before several win-or-go-home playoff games culminating in the largest single day sporting event in the United States if not the world: The Super Bowl.
