I do about 100 of watching all or parts since the games are played while I am at work. games on the weekend are a bit more difficult but I manage.

I look at box scores all the time and read game recaps all the time plus playing fantasy baseball keeps you in tune with what is going on.

I always record every Padres game, then while it's buffering for an hour or so, I watch something else recorded and then I can blast through all the commercials. Oh, and every year I call and pretend to cancel and they say how they can offer a discount because of how many years I've been a customer.

Between Fox Sports South, Fox Sports and CSS I usually get to watch around 140 or so Braves games a year. It's pretty much a nightly thing at my house during the season. When I can't watch I just keep up with it online.

You must REALLY be a fan.

Listening to those Padre announcers is painful beyond comprehension. Anyone who listens to them MUST be a Padre fan.

Respect, Brother. Respect.

Back when the Astros were at least decent, I would watch about some or all of about 100-130 - and that's not including other games too.

But they have been so miserable the past few years I can't bear to watch any games. Plus I hated Drayton and Bud after what they did to us in Hurricane Ike in 2008, killing our pennant chances. I've refused free tickets with good seats too. Maybe I've watched about 10 games the past 2 years.

Bandwagon fan! :lame:

I'll admit, baseball moreso than any other sport is easy to get super frustrated during bad times because the suck is a daily experience.....I've never dropped down to like only 10 games in a couple years, but will admit to following my team less closely when they are sucking.....

You wanna know how epically bad the Astros are right now? They've had back to back 100 loss seasons. The Cubs - who are basically the standard for suckage in MLB history - have only had like 4 100 loss teams TOTAL since their last world series win in 1907. You try watching that shit.

I do that with Sirius/Xm. Haven't paid more than $25 for 6 mo. of service in like 3 years. Works every time. You can usually get a free month of gamefly for trying to cancel it too. Don't judge me.
