https://sports.yahoo.com/basketball-ove ... 39304.html Quote: As it has regularly since 1937, Gallup polled Americans with the question: What is your favorite sport to watch? Football remained king, but basketball surpassed baseball as America’s second-favorite spectator sport

MLB > NBA WRONG Quote: It’s easy to figure out why the MLB is struggling to reach younger audiences in the age of shorter attention spans, and those Nielsen numbers don’t even reflect digital media. The NBA has an average following of 29.4 million on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, compared to 17.3 million for the NFL, 6.3 for MLB and 2.3 for MLS. All of which suggests the NBA’s rise to second in popularity will hold steady.

If millennials like the NBA more it just reaffirms my belief that MLB is the better sport. |

The last two minutes of a basketball game are all that matters. 120 seconds. That's it. Baseball actually matters past 120 seconds. |

Basketball is a wonderful game to play and watch. Baseball will always be my favorite, but I fucking madly loved the Jordan era. |

But why do Jews feel such a connection with basketball? Like they own it or something? Wait nevermind.

But that's the time you get to bullshit with a beer and a blunt/broad/buddy ... Or if you're a sociopath like me you comb over the fantasy baseball empire looking up stats snd shit. Quintessential bullshitting pace IMO |
