Tired of Baseball

As the major league baseball season winds down the die hard fans will have to say this has been another great season. I will admit baseball has caught my attention more than once this season. I still have to say i'm absolutely tired of the game though. Every year you have the same teams spending the big money on the big players making the playoffs with the occasional Yankees collapse which is always entertaining to watch and the occasional decent ball club strained by old players and injuries like the St. Louis Cardinals. I'm just absolutely tired of baseball for those facts right there. Add in the whole steroids, juiced balls, and tiny ballparks and you make me absolutely hate it. Don't get me wrong there is still nothing like going to a ballpark in the summer and Yes i'll probably watch a post season game if there is absolutely nothing else on. But i'm just tired of watching the same teams. In the American League it's always the Red Sox, the Yankees, The Angels, and They'll always toss in a small market team like the Tampa Rays to make people thing the small markets can win too. In the national league it's always the Cubs choking, or a team like the Rockies overachieving and getting blown away by the American League Champ. By no means am I trying to sway anyone to stop watching baseball, but the major league game would be much much better with a salary cap and parity like all the other major sports leagues. To me this is still the best time of the year when the major sports all meet, baseball's postseason, the nfl, the nhl, and the nba about to start...add in some great college football which i'm tired of the BCS but i'll save that for another post....and this is the greatest time of the year!!
