Yep
I grew up in the 70's, Big Red Machine/baseball was my first love. I ate, slept, walked, talked baseball around the clock. I had half a dozen shoe boxes full of Topps baseball cards in 1975 or whatever.
Baseball has never been a fast paced sport full of action. And it never will be. Perhaps it's just not adaptable to the new age fast food everything has to come in a nano-second, instant gratification age ?
Watching a game today is like watching paint dry. Homerun or a strikeout baseball is just not fun. Players can't bunt, there's very little hit and run, how many suicide squeeze's you seen lately ? steals ? on and on.
Perhaps we're just to old ?
