No. But baseball played at this level is the best sport to watch.
There is nothing like it.
I love the strategy behind every pitch. I bitch when a MLB pitcher starts behind every batter, because that's so incredibly stupid and statistics bear that out. I moan when a pitcher throws a strike with an 0-2 count, or throws a ball so far out of the zone there's zero temptation to swing at it. Just horrible execution and I expected more from kids playing baseball.
So I love the game, it just don't love me. Save for May of 2015 into June, the best run of my life in anything. Even better than college basketball in March of 2014.
I think the 162 game schedule and playing every day messes with my insight and intuition
What happened during May/June in 2015, Willie? Did you hit a bunch of winners?
Won 25K, collected 19k in June and left the balance
Two 5k checks, maybe spread out over 30 days or so (I think I was allowed one free 5k check per month)
And 9k in transfers with forum members, although I was stuck for $ 200 by "the antfather?" (something like that). Turns out he was a scam artist
Several months later 5dimes stopped accepting credit card deposits from me, and I haven't used them since
PS: I had quadruple bypass surgery on 4/3/2015, so I wasn't exactly at full speed just yet, maybe that helped
I enjoy the LLWS more, always have...No. But baseball played at this level is the best sport to watch.
