13 Reasons You've Struck Out If You Think Football Games Are Better Than Baseball Games

Baseball is truly one of America's favorite past times, in my opinion, it is the BEST past time out there in the sporting world. Here are just a few reasons that baseball will forever remain the greatest sport around.

1. It's easy to understand

There’s one goal, hit the ball. Done.

2. They don't stop every 30 seconds

I don’t need to watch a bunch of guys throw themselves in a pile very 15 seconds.

3. The cost

MLB baseball games are cheaper than NFL games and they last twice as long.

4. The pants

I mean come on have you seen all these baseball butts?

5. The food

They do NOT serve smack hotdogs and ballpark ice cream in a football stadiums now do they?

6. The merch

In my opinion, baseball jerseys are classier and way more comfy than a football jersey.

7. FREE BALLS

EVERYBODY LOVES A POP FLY!

8.  Weapons

Who decided that Bats were a good device? No idea, but they are definitely a weapon and that is definitely cool.

9. The History 

America's favorite pastime really has so much more history than football and the characters that have risen are truly heroes.

10. The music 

TAKE ME OUT TO THE BALL GAME... you’re welcome for getting that stuck in your head.

11. The community 

People don't holler at baseball players the way drunk dads yell at football. The atmosphere when a run is scored is truly something special.

12. The season

Baseball goes on forever and ever so there’s plenty of time to catch a game, and since it’s in the summer it’s nice outside and not freezing like it is at a football game.

13. It’s baseball 

Seriously, baseball is really just great. It's that simple.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
