Why is baseball such a failing sport in america?
>>157162091Its a good sport if you appreciate every single pitch, terribly boring if you only care about meaningful events. Most of millenials, zoomers and alphoomers have terrible attention spam, someone with terrible attention spam wouldnt enjoy baseball
>>157162101>2deep4you
>>157162091It will rise as in popularity again as whites put their kids in baseball to avoid CTE/blacks in NFL and blacks in basketball. Also most mexicans here assimilate to american sports and there's a presence of chicano players in baseball so the grown mexican population in the US will help it grow in the future.
It needs a certain attention span the big tech companies are working on damaging every day
>>157162091Why is handegg so popular? Such a boring sport
Impressive, Lets see the viewership of this month.
>>157162091I stopped watching baseball when Georgia attempted to implement a voter ID law and for some reason the MLB thought it would be appropriate to get involved and punish them by taking the Atlanta All Star game away from them
Why do Americans judge everything on viewership? Maybe ppl prefer playing it over watching it?
>americans slurp up handeggslop instead of baseballkino or hockeykinohow do we save burgers from themselves?
>>157162091Wasn't expecting horse racing to be that high desu>>157163837More Viewers = More Money = More Training Facilites/Job Appeal = More Talent = More Impressive Games (Which are presumably more entertaining) = ...
>>157162091There's a multitude of factors that could explain that, but I choose to blame everything on the Dodgers instead
Baseball's structure makes it much more localized, with less "national" figures and storylines. So while championship attention may not go too far beyond the two metro areas at hand, there's a higher mood and energy in the air for the locals compared to even Super Bowls at times.
>>157163795>spam thousands of games>muh viewershipkek
>>157163837yea, womnen and children play soccer here
>>157164046holy copeit's just a refugee/cope sport.chicanos like it because they're too weak for the NFL/NHL and too short for the NBA. they get raped in soccer so they flee to baseball+ it's a cope sport for regions which are bad at the NFL and NBA
>>157162091because it's the white man sports, and united states is no longer a white country.
>30% hispanicsenooooor very 1488 white and aryan senoooor
Only 4-5 teams have any chance to win the World Series because they have infinite money while the rest actively want to spend as little money as possible regardless of how much it hurts the team's chances to compete
>>157162091For me, everyone who watches NFL or NBA is black.
>>157167110it's the opposite, /nfl/ and /nba/ are the 2nd and 3rd whitest generals on /sp/, /hoc/ is #1/mlb/ is last
>>157167110It's true, only people in the flyover states watch that shit, while the white, rich states are all into baseball, especially the ones in the north.
>>157167144>joao wants to tell me about the racial dynamics in my countrykek, modern baseball fans are overwhelming poor hispanics. white people watch the NFL, the GOAT NFL dynasty is from New England
Baseball makes most of its money from in person attendance. There are 162 games a season compared to the NFL's 17.
>>157167144Massachusetts famously doesn't watch Football or Basketball.
>>157167177This obsessed brazilian is a /vt/ranny who decided to shill for baseball (knowing nothing about the sport) just because of a vtumor night the dodgers hadHe knows nothing about America or American sports
>>157167167seething flyover lmao, you will never be white, paco
>>157167096the mets payroll is like 350M and they're 16 games below 500
>seething flyover lmao, you will never be white, paco
>>seething flyover lmao, you will never be white, paco
>>157167144The black americans are seething because you are speaking the truth. Kek, they are so pathetic.
A lot of the hispanic migration is the result of the cowboys sucking ass for decadesI don't have the image but the majority of mexico/latin america bandwagoned them. Since they started sucking their fans have moved over to being dodger fansI suspect jerry hates his hispanic fans and intentionally tanks the team to make them suffer
>>157162091Crazy, baseball had every buff possible (USA vs Canada, Game 7, two big name teams, East coast vs west coast) and they STILL got fucking destroyed by the NBA in 5 gamesJust goes to show how far baseball has fallen. Only hipsters and hispanics care for it. Once they implement a salary cap they can try to join the Big Boys of American Sport
>>157163882>More MoneyAs if Baseball needs any more given how high the players' salaries are
California has 3 NFL teams and they're all dogshit, their support for baseball is just an inferiority complex due to being dogshit at America's Sport despite being the biggest state.Ironically florida has 3 teams as well but doesn't seem to give a fuck
>>157162091Where is pro wrestling?
>>157167262>California>biggest stateI can only assume you don't mean in size
>>157162091jooz nuked it to demoralize whites
>>157167273population obviously>>157167262actually it's not just california, every hispanic-flooded state + worst coast sucks at football. Hated East Coasters and White States dominate in it.This explains so much of the latinx seethe towards NYC/Philly/East Coast
how the fuck F1 is more popular than football kek
>>157167271Is it a sport though? >>157167280>daaa joos nuked baseball 80 years ago because erm...
>>157167311because they host 3 F1 races here now and motorsports are kino. Texas is a great trackthat's the CL final btw, i should probably annotate the graph
*thinking cap on*I think that leagues should be ranked based on their least watched game of the year*thinking cap off*
>>157167294>This explains so much of the latinx seethe towards NYC/Philly/East CoastYou're not making sense. If you hate a sport, you do not care that your so-called "enemies" are good at it, you would care only if your "enemies" were good at the sport you love, that's how rivalries are formed in sports. A Hispanic in California just doesn't care that the Patriots beat Californian NFL teams.
>mexicans/chicanos are going to have to shill for a hated cuban (honorary anglos of latin america, whiter than argentina and the southern cone) in America's Sportbased
>>157167355>honorary anglos of latin americaWhy has America sanctioned Chba for 60 years then?
>>157167348you're not privy to the rivalry hierarchy in america but east coast vs west coast is one of the few that extends to everything in this country, including media and, more importantly, economics/political power.While a giants fan will hate the patriots and their dynasty, they will take solace in the fact that The Superior East Coast established dominance over the rest of the country, especially California.
>>157167331las vegas race is shit and the schedule is trash for anyone but yanks,awful
>>157167367By honorary anglos i mean largely not racemixing.They had Faustian Spirit and joined up with the soviets proper and almost started a nuclear war, we respect them for this. The rest of latin america merely seethes impotently about us (especially brazil) and never had the balls to go directly against us.
you need more one piece days at baseball stadiums
>>157167379kek this is the funniest thing about spamming thousands of games a year, we get retarded gimmicks that would never in a million years make the cut in the NFL
>>157167096The only reason the Dodgers are dominant right now is because they landed on two generational players (Ohtani and Yams), money isn't the entire picture and Mets are proof that you can't buy a winning team. Rays and Brewers are proof that you can do great while not spending much, all the teams that have shit teams with low payrolls is because they have a greedy owner and should be forced to sell if they won't spend. Baseball doesn't need a salary cap.
>>157167388You're very afraid of the salary cap senooorBaseball needs to fall in line with the rest of American Sports. Implement a salary floor too if you want to be autistic about it.
>>157167368>While a giants fan will hate the patriots and their dynasty, they will take solace in the fact that The Superior East Coast established dominance over the rest of the country, especially California.And a Hispanic who hates Handegg won't care. America can boast about having the best handegg teams in the world, and most countries will not care, because they don't like handegg.
>>157167411Again you don't understand anything about rivalries in this countryEveryone who mains a sport that isn't football has a massive, incalculable inferiority complex to the NFLOur sports are in eternal competition with each other. Every victory for the NFL is a defeat for MLB/NBA/NHL. There's very little synergism there.The only exception might be that they generally target different markets for their attempts at international sports expansion.
>>157167387I came to the nico robin cosplayer with big booba that went there, so I approve
>>157167489baseball truly is the jestermaxxing sport of americatheir new biggest draw is a gimmick version of the sport called bannaball or something
>>157162326>Also most mexicans here assimilate to american sports and there's a presence of chicano players in baseballThey've also got their own league. Baseball's also just popular in the Carribbean, so other countries in the region like it
>>157167168The money the NFL makes from broadcasting rights alone is insane. Apparently they're squeezing too hard though, it's becoming a pain in the ass for sports bars
ive only watched baseball once in my life as a tourist in a foreign country so i dont really know what im speaking about but ive heard its because it was a good game to follow by radio and probably no one has the attention span for that any more when they have a phone and can scroll
>>157162091Because it's a sport that requires patience. And it's like cricket designed for children.
>>157162091It appears that it's not
>>157167070Oh you're this autist. Remember last week when you misused the word "hispanic" and a bunch of anons made fun of you?
>>157167712>4th place in major sports, 5th if you count college hoops>can't even beat the fucking kentucky derby>despite every possible buff in 2025>"appears that it's not"
>>157167723take your meds paco
>>157167734>every possible buffyeah having the blue jays is a huge draw lmao
>>157167741nice canned response retard. see right through you spamming your pet phrases.
>>157167734buddy the MLB had like 11B in revenue last year, more than the NBA. You are unemployed and consider that a "failure" lmao
>>157167744>USA vs Canada isn't a huge draw100% not american>>157167753>no argument, just seething>>157167765>spam thousands of games>omg we're big>get raped in ratings by the hated NBA you lost paco
Here's the reality, Blacks will always be infinitely more American than Hispanics in this country.This is why the NFL and NBA are More American than baseball.
>>157167793the yankees alone are a bigger draw than USA vs. canada. This isn't hockey. The Raptors Warriors final wasn't a particularly big draw. you're retarded and don't know what you're talking about.
>>157167793so you are basing viability and success on viewership, but not revenue?
>>157162091Mcdonalds makes the best food because it has the most customers.
>>157167835NBA and MLB had nearly identical revenue and the revenue that the MLB makes is from spamming games (the NBA as well but less so)It's the peak and the average that matter. You get destroyed by the peak of the NFL and even the NBA despite a myriad of buffs.Get a salary cap and come back
>>157162091It's boring; most of the players spend 95% of their time standing around doing nothing. It's too detached from human effort; the biggest thing you can do is hitting a ball with a stick really hard which is simply not satisfying to watch since it's literally just hit ball hard. At least the other hit ball with stick sports have some precision required. With golf and hockey you have to be hitting the ball someplace specific whereas baseball is literally just>hit it into the air; the farther away it goes the betterBut perhaps most importantly, baseball outfits are gay as fuck. By FAR the most homosexual outfits of any sport and yes I'm including shit like gymnastics and figure skating. If I had to guess which major sport had the biggest percentage of homosexual players then it would be baseball, no contest.
there is absolutely no way horse racing is the third most viewed sport in the country. i can go into work and find a dozen individuals to discuss the last ufc card with but they will look at me like a science project if i try to talk about horses
>>157167966truethe biggest hispanic athlete in the sport is a 5'6 260lb goblin lol
>>157168044it's the max ratings per sport, in this case it's obviously the kentucky derby which is a sports spectacle despite the fact regular horse racing is just a gambling addict pasttime
>>157167851so you are basing viability and success on viewership and not revenue. very cool methodology.
>flyovers and pacos still seething about the white man sport called baseball lmao
https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/ipsos-poll-looks-most-popular-203932482.html
>>157168205beisbol is the biggest sport of pacos though, dumb macaco
>>157168085he's not even the most popular hispanic player on his own team
>>157168279how's thatis the black guy hispanic (dominican)??reminder that black latinx aren't real latinx, they're categorically hated by their continent/countrymen
>>157168293yes, dominicans are hispanic
>>157168308nice try senoooor, mexicans and chicanos canonically hate black latinx, you love to spam the n word to score white people points
>>157168324seething paco
>>157168324you're trying too hard and also somehow not applying yourself enough.
