Never much of a BBall fan but I've always been an O's fan. I like Baseball because it's "timeless". A game without a play clock was made for summer. It's also the only major sport in North America where each side plays offence or defence at a time exclusively. Very exciting in crucial games. It's a cerebral game, with a long history and fantaastic lore surrounding it.

Interesting as well since you brought up the fact that you are Canadian. To my mind the greatest baseball book ever written was by a Canadian "Shoeless Joe" by William Kinsella.

Hockey will have to tide me over until Baseball.

Don't get me wrong I Love to PLAY baseball but mostly because its more of a social event than anything and I don't have to shower after....usually. But I could find paint more entertaining to watch than baseball.

And one of the reasons I love watching baseball on TV is that I don't have to actually watch. I grew up listening to it on the radio (still think no sport is better for radio), so I just put the game on the Tv and go about my evening. You know right away by the sound when it's time to turn your eyes to the screen.
