Pre-season baseball isn't all it's cracked up to be either.

no argument from me on that.

but for football whats so irritating is that they make you buy tickets for the preseason games when you purchase season tickets. and they're full price!

I thoroughly enjoy Spring Training....it may have something to do with the weather being nice, most games being during the day so work must be blown off, and the beer being cold. I also enjoy seeing National League teams that I don't normally get to see throughout the seasaon. The product on the field is not much to look at, but it is a fun afternoon out. The newer stadiums are very comfortable and clean. Legends Field in Tampa (Yankees) and Bright House in Clearwater (Phillies) are very nice.

Watch on Spring Training on TV? No way.

I agree, spring training is the bomb live. When i was like 12 i went to the Rangers camp, when Drugseco was there and caught like four of his homers. I played catch with Pudge Rodriguez(his first year up) because my dad knew the pitching coach at the time, Tom House. I learned the "Karatechop curve" from him, which is a breaking ball that has zero elbox pressure, for youngsters.

My dad got into verbal confrontation with Ruben Sierra becuase he was an ******* and shut his porsche door on me, pretty hilarious
