Man, as someone who started caring about baseball in 2015, it's become my favorite sport over football.

It's nice to lose a game and realize the world isn't ending. It's nice to have games throughout the week. It's a slower sport, but I really learned to lean in to the anticipation. The low attendance and viewership is really what hurts it, it's easier to get excited about football because everyone cares. It's easier to get excited about basketball because everyone cares once March Madness starts.

Really, give it a try this year. You've got a team good enough to win it all (even though the sport is so volatile that it's impossible to say), and you're not going to want that NC to be lost on you if it happens.

I'm definitely paying more attention this year. Some of the things Joyce does simply amaze me. It may sound weird because we give women's sports such a hard time but I've always enjoyed women's softball more. It's a faster game and how they pitch is just crazy.

Joyce is bringing unmistakable talent to the baseball team. And he's made things interesting to watch. I haven't taken in a full game yet but I've found myself watching clips which is something I've never done before.

My problem with baseball is that it's always been something that I felt was great to watch at the stadium but was boring to me on tv. All that said, I am going to make an effort. I played the sport so I don't hate it but truthfully I made the decision to stop watching when they banned Pete Rose. Ban the man from baseball, tell him he can't be around the sport sure, but banning him from the HoF is pure bullshite.

College is different so maybe I'll be able to get into it.
