I've concluded this after seeing all the time and effort put in by dodgerboard members this past year. The time commitment is just soooo much greater than of football and double that of basketball or hockey. Thus your investment is greater no?
The games are generally about 45 minutes longer than basketball or hockey and obviously there is double them. So much of ones summer is spent on following these guys. Gotta hurt.
As shimmy put it yesterday, sports are the stupidest thing we do.
