lol, nothing you shared negated any of my points.

The average game is over 3 hours.....then I guess we're lucky every game is average. Oh wait.....
I specify no one's playing pickup baseball and you cite little league numbers (which are decreasing every year). It hurts my head.
Baseball used to be #1. Boxing used to be #2. This isn't 1940 anymore.
MLB's average fan is easily the oldest of the 4 major sports, and it's aging further. Only 7% of MLB viewers are under 18. What do you think the NBA's is?
