I played baseball for 15 years. I got up to something like a B class league, then I broke my wrist and never played again. Baseball is game that has MOMENTS of skill. You don't need a lot of skill a lot of the time. A pitcher needs skill to pitch well. A base runner needs decent speed and anticipation. A batter needs hand eye coordination. But you can't seriously think that baseball player "athletes" are half the althete of hockey player.

If a fat slob like him can play major leauge baseball at a high level, what does that say for the quality of the atheletes in the leauge. Not a whole lot.
Baseball was fun when I played it, is horrible to watch, and has the least skilled (overall) players of any major sport.
