The reasons it is more entertaining is the faster pace, the more frequent scores and long balls, and the quicker action. Those are the main points I made for why its more entertaining and you didnt address them at all. Typical.
I didn't think they need addressing. Obviously I disagree with them.

I like the pace of baseball - I don't need a 2-hour game to hold my interest. I don't believe there is a significant difference in scoring b/t baseball and softball either. And even if there is, the lack of athletic ability is a big turnoff for me.

It just doesn't feel like a real sport when the field is so small - a regular ground ball is a tough play to make b/c the runner has to take just a couple of steps before she's at first (maybe that's why there's more scoring). Also, there is way less strategy in softball, which is boring.

Well this is a message board. The entire point of posting has to do with agreeing or disagreeing with someone else. It's kind of the whole point.

I can understand disagreeing on what you consider to be entertaining to you in particular. If we all liked the same things, then there would be no individuality. I just happen to find baseball to be the slowest, most boring game on earth. If Alabama was playing in the world series championship, I would watch it, but I wouldnt find it to be nearly as entertaining as that softball game I watched last night though.
