I disagree. I wish it was somewhere in the middle. That final (usc and az st maybe) that was a football score- 23-17 or whatever was ridiculous
I think the 1999 through he intro of composites bats were the perfect balance, right after they went from a -5 2.75 inch barrel to a -3 2.5 inch barrel.

No. Why are you watching if you don't like it. Don't understand why someone would do that?

Sadly, our stupid generation rather watch a 1-0 soccer match and think it's the greatest thing ever.

Some of us aren't overcaffeinated 12 year olds that need to see a home run every inning to stay entertained

Maybe it's the new stadium more than anything...I was there in 2013 and it was nice...but balls die there.

College baseball is still great but the CWS has been horrible since they relocated from Rosenblatt. The design and construction of TD Ameritrade has been a miserable failure.
You play 50-60 games during the season and then have to play a completely different style in that dump. Tear it down and start over. This time don't build it in a hole...turn it the correct direction...don't have foul territory as large as a football field...and don't cram it into downtown.
Other than the new seats, bathrooms, and concession stands...this has been an EPIC FAILURE.
You'll NEVER replicate the traditions and memories of the CWS in that park. From family & friends in Omaha as well as articles in the Omaha World Herald...it seems the locals feel the same way.

That's fair. There should be a middle ground. 27-14 games or whatever is to baseball as arena football is to football.

Would rather watch a Sherwin Williams exhibit.

I just don't understand why they didn't just give rosenblatt a massive facelift instead. a shame. and yes, good god there is too much foul territory
