Not matter what you think of professional sports........ baseball requires a lot more discipline than basketball or football. It's a daily grind for one, over six months of the year. Hitting major league pitching is almost impossible, as witnessed by the fact that someone who is successful three out of ten times is a superstar. And it's more individual than other sports - when you are at bat, you are ALONE. Finally it's appeal is more intellectual than football or basketball. Are these some of the reasons it is not appealing to our 'urban' youth?

Would you care to explain why you think baseball has a greater intellectual appeal than football or basketball?
