to me a sport isn’t an activity that boils down to sitting on the bench with a towel around your neck for 99% of the final two minutes of a game when it’s a close nail biter

if a real sport is tied or very close near the end of the game the atheletes are sweating vomit for the final minutes of the game, not anointint their brows with Gatorade emblem emblazoned towels while their coaches get into a tactical chess game of 50 plays lasting .1 seconds each

just ook at the difference between a Stanley Cup playoff game in the final two minutes in a game separated by one goal, or close, and an NBA playoff game with a close score in the final two minutes and you should see that to which I refer

if basketball and baseball are considered sports then why isn’t croquet?
ok this isn’t a fair assessment - I just find the USA’s preoccupation with basketball rather absurd, same with baseball

Every year, MLB teams miss the playoffs by a couple games. I’ve always wondered, ‘why in basketball do they play only 80-ish games in a season, yet half the league makes the playoffs? And in football, they play 16 weeks, and six teams from each conference make the playoffs.

In baseball, the teams play almost every single day. Shouldn’t more teams be rewarded for their hard work? I know it would be breaking tradition to change the playoff system but what would you think of it if they did?

does anyone have a baseball slogan like "Ballin" for basketball?

Thanks
that is a good slogan. thanks

ok it doesnt have to be "cute" i just need a really good idea.

The Basketball jerseys have it as well and Im pretty sure its Jerry West. Its the little guy who is white around red and blue. Type in MLB logo in yahoo to see a photo. Thanks for all your help. I did not say it was Jerry West, he is the one that is on the NBA logo I was asking for the MLB logo guy. I was only using Jerry as an example.
