Is there anything less interesting than the NWA Naturals?

Can't find anything to make me take notice or want to invest any emotions, bonds, or really anything in the franchise.

Eh, I think I've been to three games lifetime.

They are just "kinda there" to me. The organization does a lot better in Springdale than they were doing in Wichita.

They need to have a team in Fort Smith called the Industrials or something so I can get drunk often and yell at people without going to jail for it.

Never been to a Naturals game.

I've heard they have a nice fireworks show.

Take a trip south. How could you not feel a bond with this guy?

first and only baseball game I attend this year will be tonight. going to watch Mayflower v. Vilonia high school at dickey stephens. should be a cool event to raise money for their demolished towns. I live 5 minutes from either one so figured I'd go show my support and donate some cash..

if they don't sell beer tonight, i'll be a kregeen's pub across the street by the third inning

Do you not understand the concept of minor league baseball? Its fun to go out and see some future stars, and the AA level is probably the most exciting level of ball since you end up with too many old guys hanging on at AAA.

The Royals typically have a strong farm system and then screw it up on the major league level. If I lived down there I'd go pretty often. I'd honestly rather watch AA ball than see college baseball.

I just can't get in to minor league baseball no matter how hard I try. My wife's company has season tickets to the Springfield Cardinals so we end up going to like 15-20 games a year. Four seasons later since we moved here and it still doesn't pump me up to go.

I mean there has been a ton of talent that has gone through here in that time which has been cool but its hard to build any sort of attachment to the team because it turns over constantly.

I feel that way about minor league ball in general

Although it was cool to see Mike Trout play before he made it big

I just can't take it seriously when there is actually a team called the biscuits
