If they stopped the brawls in Baseball....

[BOSSMANPC]

would people start watching hockey?

 

[Automattic]

I'd watch baseball if they brawled more. And we're less femine when doing so.

 

[BOSSMANPC]

Maybe shooters should aim for the goalies head more.

 

[puckhead]

I wish they'd stop referring to those hug-fests as brawls.
It's a bit embarrassing for actual brawls.

I take it you didn't see Tiger pitcher Jeff Weaver throw a fastball off of Sweeney's helmet and then call for the flyball? That happened over 10 years ago.

Almost as bad as the occasional basketball "fight". Eh Puck?

Do players throw baseballs at each others heads during brawls? I thought that was the bitch shit that starts 'em...

No, it's beaning players in the head that start 'em.

EDIT: And then catching the ball after it ricochets back towards the pitcher.

yeah - for how much they posture being tough-asses, those slap-wars are pretty lame too

I think baseball will never catch on in America or become one of the big four sports until they get rid of the brawls. The casual fan is turned off by the unnecessary violence, and while I know the hard core baseball fans will defend it to the death it will never become mainstream as long as there is fighting in baseball. Americans just don't get it.

LMAO!!!

I would hate to see them stop fighting in baseball over in Korea.


I still find it funny.

In hockey with all those sharp skates, that'd be fucking dangerous.

I'm also concerned with the low scoring football games in the NFL. Americans don't want to watch a boring defensive slugfest where the score ends up being 2 touchdowns to four touchdowns, or one TD to three. The NFL will never be big down here unless they make the end zones bigger.

Geez, and here I thought I was going to get to see a good karate fight

Yes, but last I checked, the safety's and cornerbacks aren't 50% taller than they used to be.

PS - That Korean "fight"is hilarious. Never seen that.

I owe you rep, that is great.

I feel the same way about MMA. MMA needs to get rid of all the punching, kicking, and the overall "fighting" aspect of the sport and stick to what Americans love: two sweaty naked men down on the floor in simulated coitus.

It's simulated?!?!

I thought that was the reward for winning...fuck 'em up, then fuck 'em over.
