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

In This Article:

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.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
