Players chewing their gum or whatever it is and spitting around for a few hours – wtf? I mean that’s fine with me – they have nothing else to do than standing around but I just don’t get the point calling this a “sport”!? I went to two Baseball games in my life: the first and the last one.

The secret why people are going is the fact that it’s all about boozing and eating a lot of junk food. But there is more – of course. Anne and Lucie were well advised carrying a backgammon board to the AT&T Park to stand the 4 or whatever hours of endless boringness. Baseball – Backgammon: 0-17
