Sorry about the cycling bashing. I like riding my bike, just find the guys on TV to be boring. But different strokes for different folks.

I know many people who are bored with baseball, and thats very understandable.

And Pgard, for the 100th time, I dont remember anyone ever saying baseball players (in general) were anywhere close to "great athletes". Just not sure why that matters.

Wait a minute now.Try again about the baseball players not being athletes.Maybe you can say that about some pitchers,but any good hitter has to have incredible eye-hand coordination.Try looking at some of the break these pitches have on them,and you must realize how good they are to be able to hit a pitch that breaks that hard.If you can hit both fastballs,and breaking balls(especially sliders)etc.,then you are an athlete.Try that split finger fastball that Haren was throwing last night.Good luck trying to hit that.
