College is better. Most sec fans don' have an MLB team to care about and they play way too many games.

Love college baseball.
Hate MLB. I haven't watched an MLB game in at least 15 years if not longer.

Which do you prefer?
Both.
Been a Braves fan my entire life. Catch most regular season games at home and try to make a couple trips to Atlanta every season for 3-4 regular season games.

I’m in my 40’s and I grew up a massive Astros fan. My dad had followed the Astros since they entered the league in 62 when they were still the old Colt 45’s. We would make 3 or 4 trips to Houston a year to catch a weekend series. As I’ve gotten older though and my dad passed away I’ve been more into college baseball. If I had to choose between the two now I would probably pick college.

Minor League MLB is better than college or MLB. Baseball in general is as fricking boring as watching paint dry but at least minor league teams put on a show between innings and in the stands during innings. And who knows, between kids running 3 legged races and adult women trying to pass a baseball to one another without using their hands you might actually see a play or a hit which will not put you to sleep.
Braves baseball used to be fun for exactly the same reasons minor league baseball is fun today....because the braves sucked and they had to do something to get the 3-5000 fans who attended most games in the stadium.
Our local minor league team has Thirsty Thursdays during the season....all you can eat hotdogs and draft beer. About $20 on top of the price of a ticket. Thats a helluva summer evening right there I don't care who you are. One trip to the beer stand at the Battery would cost more than the whole evening in North Augusta and until recently they didn't even sale beer at most college stadiums so you had to sit through that shite cold sober...worse than T Ball...at least t ball kids do some funny shite on the field....

I prefer any college sport over professional.

So is college baseball regardless of your opinion. It's for punk little boys that think they are hot shite and they diddle each other in the dressing rooms.

Disregarding your opinion because you sound like a butthurt a-hole.

College baseball for me. I start watching it on ESPN+ as soon as the season starts. This year I've attended games at Nicholls St., Southern Miss, and Missouri St. Last couple years, I've also been to LSU, Arkansas, Missouri, Arkansas St., and to some lower division games. If my work travel in the Spring puts me close to a game, I'll try and make it. Last Tuesday, I was trying to fit in attending FGCU at FIU but travel plans changed.
Only watched one MLB game this season and haven't attended a Royals game in about four years. Can't remember when I attended my last Cardinals game in St. Louis.

Used to love MLB but started losing interest around 2009, nowadays just college baseball.

Lol, why the animosity? I'm guessing you were the guy who flunked out of whiffleball as a kid.

College baseball is about to explode. It's inexpensive and a lot of fun.

Only a Big Ten fan would ask this.

College.
MLB is seriously stepping on their crank by not making every single game available everywhere.

There was a time when I enjoyed MLB but after multiple strikes and a cancelled season because of greed, they lost me for good in 1995. Major League Baseball killed itself and they have no one to blame but themselves. And I was a huge Orioles fan growing up in the 1960’s until 1995.
College baseball is great. I can still remember listening to the radio with my Dad and brothers in our den when we beat Georgia Tech in the 1971 Regional Finals to advance to our first ever CWS. Talk about exciting!!! State has had a baseball radio network for decades longer than probably any other college baseball program. And it is still going strong today. In fact most people like to mute the TV and listen to the radio guys while watching the action even when it is off time wise.
