They're ALL tough on a professional level! Are you insane?!?!?! [/quote] Duh they are all tough. However the single hardest thing to do in sports in to take a round stick and consistently hit a round ball hard. Baseball requires the most skill out of any of the major sports, while basketball and football require more athleticism. Oh and cheating in baseball has died down alot recently do to the toughest drug testing policy in any sport. Every player is randomly tested multiple times durring the season and baseball is the only sport where the players union is open to implementing blood tests.

Why do basketball players feel the need to jump in the stands and beat up fans? [/quote] Isolated incident EIGHT years ago...That was a dumb comparison....Baseball players cheat yearly...Heck, from the looks of it, DAILY! I just asked why? [/quote] Honesty I think there has been more cheating in the past, because baseball is one of the most difficult sports to play. Think about it you are considered a success if you fail 70% of the time in baseball. There are very few people on this planet that can take a round stick and hit a small ball coming at them at over 90 mph. Same with pitching there are very few people that can make a ball do what mlb pitchers make it do, just look at how bad people look when they throw out the first pitch. I think sometimes players get in slumps and don't know how to fix it so they feel the need to cheat.

  12. [quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="1231580" timestamp="1340151554"] The only way you can compare sports attendance that has a large discrepancy of the amount of games played is by looking at average attendance, not total. Anyone with any kind of sense should know that and not make comparisons otherwise. Yes it is a fact that the total MLB attendance is larger than NFL attendance but any nimrod should know that by the larger amount of games played. It's not a fair comparison which are what some are arguing about. [/quote] There is no comparison everyone knows football is more popular. The only I was trying to is show the football worshipers who were taking shots a baseball is that football isn't first in everything. Apparently that worked because some of them can't handle that more people people go to baseball games.
  13. You need to watch some film. Townley has a cannon and can throw it downfield fine. Townley lead his team to the playoffs and fits didn't. At the end of the day the coaches vote for the kids on playoff teams over kids on teams that didn't make it.

[/b] How am I being misleading? Did I post something that wasn't true? Nope, I just responded to someone who attacked baseball by saying " baseball = the most attended professional sport" and some of you freaked out about. Don't get your panties in a wad football is still king and I never said it wasn't. However more people watch and go to baseball games every year than do football games. That is a fact. [/quote] The bolded parts are where I both brought up the fact baseball played about 10 times as many games, and the acknowledge it again after that. It still doesn't change the fact that more people go to baseball games because they have 3 times as many games as football. If football had that many games football would destroy the attendance records of baseball games.  8) [/quote] there thats better. [/quote] Your math is terrible. Baseball plays 10 times as many games as football. It still doesn't change the fact that more people go to baseball games. I love how you football worshipers can't accept it  :P Oh and no football wouldn't break baseball  attendance records, because if the tried to play as many games as baseball all the players would be injured before they got to 500 games.

[/quote] How many times do I have to say [b]baseball has a higher attendance because they play more games[/b]? Every one knows that, but it doesn't change the fact that more people go to baseball games. Its ok lol. It's not a misleading fact. If it is what am I supposedly misleading people to believe? [/quote] See now there you go. Now you said the entire fact. And if you look above you didn't even mention anything about it being because yall have more games. Just pointing that out.  8) [/quote] Oh really?

Nuff said.  8) [/quote] Exactly people are willing to pay and go see a baseball game, but not for football. They just sit on the couch  an watch thier team's 1 game per week ;D 8). [b] Oh and if you add up the number of people that watch the 2,580 different baseball games and compare that to the number of people that watch the 256 football games I bet you baseball has more viewers. [/b]  Also if the World Series  averaged 20 million viewers per game that would make 140 million for the whole event.Which is about 30 million more than the Super Bowl. [/quote] You must be a liberal, using numbers to suit your arguement...Do you honestly think that each of the 7 games of the World Series were watched by completely different viewers? That's the only way you would get to your misleading 140 million viewers statistic.  More likely, you probably had 20 to 30 million of the same viewers watching the "Series".  Work the numbers all you want, Football is "King" in Southeast Texas! [/quote] Does it matter if it was different people? No matter how you look at it there were more sets of eyes watching the WS than watching the SB. BTW the way I nevet claimed the Baseball was more popular than football. I just said that baseball had a higher total attendance and a higher total viewership. [/quote] [b] Simply because there are more games played [/b]...Turn the Superbowl into a 7 game series and answer the viewership question again.  Once again, very misleading.  FF, you're comparing apples to oranges... The truth of the matter is that football has both a higher total "per event" attendance AND viewership...and yes, you are right FF, football is more popular too! [/quote] [b] Duh!! [/b] How am I being misleading? Did I post something that wasn't true? Nope, I just responded to someone who attacked baseball by saying " baseball = the most attended professional sport" and some of you freaked out about. Don't get your panties in a wad football is still king and I never said it wasn't. However more people watch and go to baseball games every year than do football games. That is a fact. [/quote] The bolded parts are where I both brought up the fact baseball played about 10 times as many games, and then acknowledge it again after that. It still doesn't change the fact that more people go to baseball games.

  20. [quote name="Thegoldenboy" post="1231498" timestamp="1340137450"] The liberty team from last year was one of the most talented 3a teams I have ever seen. They had like 5-6 kids over 6"5 and athletes to go with it. Dline was huge oline was huge. It doesn't make any sense they were not better than they were. [/quote] ::) ::) They weren't that talented. If they were they would've made the playoffs even if the coach is as bad as some say.

I do know this, more people attend high school football games than they do high school baseball games. In fact, more attend high school basketball games than high school baseball in the state of Texas. [/quote]hMMM, I wonder why? [/quote] Because basketball is played in the AC and Baseball is played in the Texas' heat and humidity. [/quote] Look FF, while I appreciate your love of baseball, it's time to concede...baseball is just not as appealing as you might want it to be, and hair-brained figures and excuses won't change that...  Your reasons that in high school, basketball attendance beats baseball attendance is due to an A/C venue for B-Ball versus a baseball game's hot humid Texas conditions...Well, high school football attendance beats both, and it is played outside just like baseball...Baseball is a great sport, but it doesn't stack up against football, no matter how you slice it.  Sorry... [/quote] Concede what? Please show me where I said baseball was more popular. Everyone knows football is at the top(how many times do I have to say that) baseball is next, followed by basketball in national popularity( you.can google it if you don't believe me). Now  with that said, why can't you just accept that more people go to baseball games than football games lol? It's not that hard, and it is a fact. Btw I think being outside in the fall is a little different than being outside in the spring and summer.

He'd didn't make playoffs in a 5 team district. No disrespect towards slack he is a great guy but he is to inexperienced. As to what you were saying about deel I will admit he has made some mistakes, but the yer before last he took a group of seniors who didnt win a game from 7th to there sophomore year and got 3rd in district. Now that is not a huge accomplishment, but to take a group of kids who have never won 3 games in one season an get third than that is good coaching during season and off season. Yes they did not beat anybody worth anything this year, but it was an improvement. You cannot seriously expect a coach to come into a program that was getting 3 wins a season and start beating everybody in the first few years [/quote]  He has been here more than a few years.He has had the talent to go farther than he has.The talent Liberty has had over the past three years should have taken them two or three deep into the playoffs.Its not the talents fault.You cant blame Stewart just like you cant blame Bush any longer for Obama's failures.I remember when I was a little kid and watching Kenneth Skidmore go into Barbers Hill.He beat up on everyone in his few years including then #7 state ranked Liberty.It can be done. [/quote] I think people are over valuing Liberty's talent level. Sure they had some nice offensive skill players, but they had very little on the defensive side of the ball. It doesn't matter who the coach is if you only have talent on one side your not going three rounds deep.
