Am I a bad person because I don’t care about the World Series

2006 mets tigers world series

I was channel surfing last night and remembered the World Series was on. I looked at the score box and then clicked off. This happened a few times during the night.

I just don’t care.

I love hanging with you all during Mets games, but I have just zero interest in anything else. On paper I would like the Formerly New York Giants to win, but it’s a long road from that sentiment to actually staring at a baseball game, especially one produced in the “national broadcast for casual fans” style.

I don’t mean to take your enjoyment away. I just feel guilty that I don’t appreciate it. I’m also ignoring a 9:30am NFL game right now if that makes you feel better.

  1. I totally get it SS. I’ve watched maybe 3 innings the entire series. I think it’s Mets fatigue, really. So hard to appreciate good baseball when, for so many years, we’re programmed to watch horrendous baseball for the most part. Oh how I hope this changes — soon.

  2. “GL0401: metspolice no but you should watch. Winter begins when the final out is made” No interest, and the games are too late

  3. metspolice GL0401 The ratings improve as the games go on. It’s beneficial to start the games later.

  4. metspolice I agree with time. I will be asleep by fifth inning|third quarter. Been watching sports for 12 freakin hours today

  5. WakefieldsBoss do you have breakdowns I could read? (sincere not jerky) – would love to see it.

  6. WakefieldsBoss (again not being jerky) i know those sites but they wrap one big #, would love to see hourly splits. or do i just not see em

  7. metspolice They almost always break it down at least in the text. Next time I see a good one, I’ll send it your way.

  8. metspolice mlb will never go up against the nfl on sunday but a saturday afternoon game would be great

  9. “nickschiavo: metspolice mlb will never go up against the nfl on sunday but a saturday afternoon game would be great” yes yes

  10. metspolice but you are missing one of the best postseasons in a very long time, its been awesome

  11. metspolice its a problem mlb needs to address if they wanna get kids to grow to love the game

  12. metspolice Plays great in the north. South wouldn’t watch. College football. nickschiavo

  13. nickschiavo metspolice guys, I am 24 years old. Games started at the same times when I was a child.

  14. MostlyNoles metspolice solid point, dont know if theres any good way to resolve the ‘problem’

  15. willmusto metspolice and at what age was the first time you watched a full world series game

  16. .nickschiavo willmusto I’m of the age of watching both full playoff game series – one would be at 3 and one at night.

  17. metspolice nickschiavo first pitch should be at 7 for each game. Sat day game doesn’t work.

  18. nickschiavo metspolice its 15 percent of the country. The other 85 percent should matter the most.

  19. sorry, but at some point if you cant watch then you may have to say that you arent so much a baseball fan as a mets fan. nothing wrong with that, just a different approach. i can enjoy the world series no matter who is in it because…baseball.
