Why do some people get so upset when others say it is? In this country, when someone says the big 3 sports, everyone knows what sports you're talking about. And everyone who has a problem with college baseball being included knows immediately to respond in kind that baseball isn't a big 3 sport even if baseball isn't specifically mentioned. Why do you think they inherently know to say that?

Regardless, SEC baseball is a big deal in this conference. A lot of people love it. It's always a big topic of discussion in the spring on this board. If you don't care for it, don't talk about it. It isn't difficult. I couldn't care less about womens basketball, but I don't spend my time telling others how unimportant it is either.

And I'm going to let you in on a secret...mens basketball isn't the huge money maker people make it out to be either. March Madness is for a couple weeks out of the year. The sport, in general, barely turns a profit or loses money at most schools around the country. I know LSU is unique, but there have been plenty of years where baseball has brought the university more money than basketball has. The only unquestionable revenue-producing sport is football. But last time I checked, how much net revenue a sport makes isn't totally mutually exclusive with how many fans care about the sport.

I do find it funny that you can usually tell immediately what schools have a good or bad baseball program based upon their fans' stances on the sport.
