The market dictates your platform and visibility. If there was demand for college baseball it would have a better platform.

The market dictates women's basketball and softball have more demand than college baseball. Them's just the facts.

The fact of the matter is that softball was lucky enough to establish their game at seven innings... play with a fat ball that makes it easier for the defense to make spectacular plays...and to play on a smaller diamond where tight plays are the norm.

Makes for a shorter, more appealing game for the non baseball types of fans.

The TV programmers hate baseball because they never know how long a game will last. 90% of softball games will fit in a two to two and a half hour window.
