Kids barely play it.
Make football, UFC, or even web surfing for porn the new official 'national pastime'.

Damn, I agree with you. NFL is the example Baseball should follow... but I had this discussion with some hardcore baseball fans and their arguments is we're wrong because the stadiums are packed! They forget to say that it's not packed everywhere and the viewers on TV is dropping ( then again, please correct me if I'm wrong on this one!).
Why would anyone care in Washington or smaller market when their team is out of the race early June? Why 160 games? Why no salary cap? Why games 'til November? Why Bud Selig? Why games finish at 2 AM if you call this a family pasttime?
