Okay, here’s my take on “why football is better than baseball,” written in a casual, personal blog style:
So, I’ve been thinking a lot about this lately: Football vs. Baseball. Which one’s really better? I mean, they’re both “America’s pastime,” right? But for me, football just crushes it. And I wanted to walk you through how I figured this out for myself.
My Little Experiment
First, I tried watching, like, a ton of both. I cleared my weekends, grabbed some snacks, and just… binged. Baseball games first. Lots of them. I mean, I really gave it a shot.
- I started by watching some highlight reels, just to get a feel for the “exciting” parts. Okay, a few cool catches, some home runs… I guess?
- Then, I went for full games. Oh boy. So. Much. Waiting. Lots of standing around, spitting, adjusting… stuff. It felt like forever between pitches sometimes.
- I tried different teams, different leagues, even minor league stuff. Still… felt slow.
Then, I switched to football. Boom! Completely different energy.
- Highlight reels? Non-stop action! Crazy catches, huge hits, long bombs… I was instantly hooked.
- Full games? Even better! The constant movement, the strategy unfolding, the tension building with every down… it was gripping.
- I did the same thing – different teams, different levels (even some college games). The excitement was consistent.
The Verdict
It wasn’t even close. After my little experiment, I felt way more invested in football. I actually cared what happened next. With baseball, I was mostly just waiting for it to be over.
I even Tried attending games with my *’s more fun to watch football because my favorite player’s team had an amazing game and won in the end, but when it came to attending a baseball game, it was the opposite. It felt tedious and the game went by very slowly.
I get that baseball has its fans. It’s a more relaxed, maybe “thinking person’s” game. But for me, give me the hard-hitting, fast-paced, adrenaline rush of football any day. It’s just… better. Way more exciting to watch, and way easier to get into. That’s my two cents, anyway. Tried and tested!
