Well, I'm from the UK. I am more involved and interested in american sports than most here, yet I never really took a keen following to baseball. It looks pretty cool to play, and I have watched it some, but again it is extremely slow and there rarely seem to be close thrilling matches. I can understand alot of people's disregard of cricket. It was the sport I first played as a kid, and I got very good at it. I love to play it, but it speaks for itself that this sport I am so fond of is ranked fairly lowly in my books in terms of watchability. Having said that it is a great sport to go and watch live on a summers day with friends, and just chill and get drunk (I imagine watching baseball live to be something similar - but not a TV spectacle imo).
