Which system is better: NFL or Baseball

That sad - even for you, Neutered.

 

You're completely fucking delusional and psychotic.

My well-reasoned arguments turned the tide in this debate. Your shit-flinging ruined you. Just about everyone here sees it.

You came here screaming and crying about how anyone who doesn't agree with you is a fucking asshole and I came up with FACTS supporting my well-reasoned thesis. Advantage, now, always and forever: Me.

And hey, even if everyone doesn't see it, it's 36-all, jackass. Your so-called "majority opinion" is anything but.

You're a fucking psycho. "People are picking against me just to pick against me," No, people are picking against you because you're wrong. Asshole.

Pube in high school: "I'm home jerking off and watching NFL Films Best Of Super Bowl III because all the girls turned me down just to turn me down. I'm actually the biggest stud in school but one girl doesn't like me so she turned everyone against me. Never mind I breathe through my mouth, drag my knuckles on the ground behind me and scream at the girls who won't talk to me while I throw my poo outside the in-school suspension room. I'm a stud!"

And no, I'm not Frank Stallone. I leave crafting numerous screen IDs to the truly psychotic assholes here.

Oh, and the Yankees have won 100 games in a season four times since 1996 but won it all after winning 100 games just once. Meanwhile, the Red Sox have not won 100 games in a season since 1946. But don't let the facts get in the way of a good whiny generalization used to prop up your non-existent argument,

Completely
Hopelessly
Uninformed

Only among you and your sychophants.

I think Buck may have been the only pro-baseball commenter not sharing the head nitwit's brain.

And, considering how there are no football writers on this board and 70 percent are seamheads, 36-36 is a tsunami in logic's favor.

 

Sure are a lot of people watching these "unwatchable" games.

 

People watch American Idol, too

 

Not disputing the ratings. Just saying to me, they're unwatchable, and it's partly due to the NFL's financial system. And if I'm free on Sundays, there's a good chance I'll have a Lions-Texans game on, just because it's a Sunday, and it's the only NFL game. That's not to say it's an enjoyable experience; it's just the power of a one-time-a-week sport.

 

I've resisted posting on this thread because, well, we do one every year and they turn out about the same. I would, however, suggest those who like football's system best are much better served by Twoback's arguments than Pube's antagonistic, prepubescent rants.

If by better, you mean which league produces the most statistically level playing field between all teams, then football is likely your ideal. The NFL has worked very hard to achieve that. But that's not my only criteria. I like baseball's system better because I'm more entertainmened by it. I like that baseball has Davids and Goliaths. I like that baseball doesn't allow cover for cheap owners or an excuse not to spend anymore for even the most competitive owners. I like the watching baseball's player market, which best mimics a free market system. I like that it inspires the level of creativity and ingenuity that we've seen in the Oaklands, Minnesotas, Floridas and Cincinnatis. I like that the Bostons and New Yorks are constantly pushing their clubs to new and greater heights. I like that baseball has a longer schedule because it becomes more of a soap opera with story lines and mini-dramas that stretch over days and months, both on and off the field. For me, baseball provides a rhythm for the summer months.

But I like football, too. There's a week-long buildup and it's more of an event feel because of the shorter schedule. I can see why many people like it better.

 

At least that is an original take. You like the system tilting it in the same small block of fans' favor year after year.

Cool.

While I always post some blunt reactions during a thread, sure, you ignoring the salient points within the posts I made early on, which had a lot of legwork attached to them, reinforces that the best post on this thread was by Ralph Waldo Henderson on July 31 at 11:05:12 a.m.

It was a hole in one.

 

I must remember to archive this thread whenever we have one of those "income tax" debates on here.

Question for everyone on here just gushing about how it's great to have "Davids & Goliaths" and who have zero problem with letting the rich teams enjoy the fruits of their good fortune:

Are you also against progressive income taxation, which (in theory) does what the NFL tries to do: Attempt to level an otherwise hopelessly unlevel economic playing field?

Something tells me if trounced or Lyman came on here telling you that you underachieving, lazy "Davids" simply had to "work harder and be smarter" to compete economically with an financial "Goliath" like Paris Hilton, you'd tell him to fuck off and that our system sucks.

 

so socialism is better than free market? you commie bastard!

 

A free market is one thing.

A completely unregulated free market is something else, something usually quite dangerous . . . and something I suspect just about every liberal on here would be against . . . unless, for some reason, the market is baseball.

 

commie bastard!
