Who said anything about being mad at anything or anybody? I think my word was boring. Boring is not being mad. Boring is not finding something to be mad at or incite any other emotion. How can you not find 3-4 hour games boring when compared to a fast moving 2 1/2 game of the past? How is a 5 minute AB culminated by a strikeout more exciting than a triple? Or a steal of home? Or a suicide squeeze?
Oh yeah, about the OBP reply. I was taught "a walk is as good as a hit" in the 1950's. Billy Beane did not invent OBP.
I love baseball. I do not love the all or nothing HR or go sit down attitude that is prevalent in the game.
