I can't imagine anyone with an IQ above full blown autism making such a statement.

NEWSFLASH Rainman... for the 800th time;
- Some people like steak and NOT chicken.
- Some people like Fords and NOT Chevys
- Some guys like blondes and NOT brunettes
- And....wait for it!.....some people like football and NOT other sports. I am a diehard UGA fan but I can not tell you the name of one single player on our baseball or basketball team.

I would rather watch congressmen debating ad valorem taxes on CSPAN or the old plow rust out behind the barn than a college basketball game.

Why is this so hard for people to comprehend and why does it offend you/them so much that folks actually like one sport and not care about another?

28 posts in 5 years but feels the need to call others cowards? I hope you’re an alter because this is just sad.

Not sure whether to take you seriously. You have been on this board since 2019. You have a grand total of 28 posts in over 5 years. This is your your first post in the last 10 months and you come on here calling people cowards who don't really follow baseball? Have you been in jail all this time? Did you get banned and had to go back to an alter?

Sorry but I don't really see how you have much credibility on this board.

I am not a huge fan of baseball. I do follow A&M and SEC baseball but I do not watch every game. I am not a big basketball fan either but I do follow A&M and SEC basketball. I follow them because I am a fan of my school. I am here win or lose.

Meh. It’s fun to watch when we win, but I’m not going to pretend to care when we suck.


You and everybody else on the planet when it comes to minor sports...

And of course... when your team is good.... and the other guy's team sucks...

The other guy says "nobody cares" about said sport.

I love baseball. Played the game. I’d rather win the CWS than a CFB national title. I doubt either will happen, but there it is

Fans of teams not making the grade in football usually make these types of posts.

Yes, from the fanbase who supposedly doesn't care about college basketball.

Just my opinion, but college baseball is the one sport that lags well behind professional. I enjoy college athletics but if I had a choice of one. NFL over CFB by small margin, CBB over NBA slight margin, MLB over college baseball no question.

Says the Bama man. Some schools do take baseball seriously and their attendance shows it.

Baseball in general has lost some of its entertainment value. Pitch clock is nice but not a fan of the other technologies. Can’t say exactly what, but something changed where I lost interest. Still enjoy a day at the park but no interest watching on tv.

I go beyond not caring about baseball. I actively hate the game and everything about it. I've always hated it. My opinion of people diminishes when I find out they like baseball.

And that's our best sport.

Is that cowardice?

I've been living life, attending graduate school which just finished a few weeks ago, smiling that I don't waste much time on an anonymous website yelling at other anonymous people behind an anonymous name. You should try it some time

I don't follow Mizzou golf. Damn, I didn't realize what a coward I was for that. I'll turn in my courage badge and my fan card. I'm so ashamed.
There's a difference between following a sport closely and trying to overcompensate for your one dimensional school by telling other fans that "we don't care about that sport you like." You don't have to follow every minor sport closely to care about that team's success in the postseason. That seems to have been the missed point of this entire thread. I'll still take your courage badge and fan card though if you're offering

Sorry but only a complete retard would claim fans should care about every sport equally without calling them cowards.
You still read at a third grade level don't you?

I'll be honest, I don't believe you simply because no sane person would brag about having such a lack of personality. To each his own though

No, YOU still WRITE at a third grade level.

You weren’t clear in the language of your first post and thus the supposed confusion on the part of others which you have spent this thread trying to clear up, having failed at the opening to properly express your apparent thought.

TuscAUloosa as usual you say things that are not true.

LSU home baseball games average attendance in 2023 was 12,431.
LSU home gymnastics meet average attendance in 2023 was 12,075

No one should take anything you say as accurate.
