With baseball season in full swing (excuse the very bad pun), I thought what the heck. I'm curious to see how many people give a crap bout America's pastime. Yeah I gave a lot of options but it is my first poll I've posted here so I intend to make the most of it.

Sorry Georgia; but in my household we hate the Braves. My mom's a die hard Phils fan. I, myself, am a huge Dodgers fan. We also both root for the Sox, though she does more so than I.

Red Sox fan. \o/
gforce422 is awesome because:
-He made the absolute nicest comments about me in the other topic. I didn't respond to them yet, because I suck, but they are greatly appreciated! =D
-I would say he would also be a good runner up as one of the nicest people alive.
-He joined the IRC sometimes. But not enough, I say! Chat moar =D
-He is evidently only 18 year old but he could easily pass for 25. =D
-He is a drummer like *I* am and this in itself is cool.

Where are all of my fellow Yankee fans when I need them? D=

I have nothing against most Red Sox fans though, unless they try to lord it over you like they're better or something.

If you're a Sox fan and simply enjoy the game, more power to you.

I don't usually watch baseball, but I'm usually distracted by life and stuff. if I can, I like getting into the season.

It's my favorite team sport, but that's not saying much. I'll attend games sometimes, but I have no geographical loyalty.

Ahem. Could care less...? (It's a common saying, but there's no reason not to put it the other way.)

Could care less implies that you care. I don't even want to imply that. Put my vote down for the imaginary "Couldn't care less" option.

None of the options in the poll apply to me, tbh. I like baseball, I follow the standings, scoreboards and leader boards like a hawk, but it's actually watching a game on TV I am not very fond of (unless it's really, really good). I like going to games, though, but I don't do that very often.

I don't have much loyalty to any one team. This year I am personally rooting for the Cubs.

I understand this view. It can be boring to watch sports on TV; but so much more exciting to actually go to a game.
