Why Football is more important in USA that Baseball?
Luis
Of course baseball has a lot of fans but not like football, and a lot of high schools don't have baseball field just football and stuff like that.. Baseball is dying in America?
Answer
Baseball brought together a nation following a war in which Brother fought Brother. Nothing upon nothing, no sport, no matter could ever take the place of Baseball in America. Unlike Football, every player's contribution to every play is recorded and given value. The statistics are rarely misleading. If you want to know the American League or National League's best third baseman of the 1930s was as Casey Stengall would say "....you could look it up..."
The Baseball Citizen is a player, fan, historian, statistician, philosopher, thinker, doer, believer, and of course a simple believer of the game where the rules don't change to fit the times. The rules remain in "spite" of the times or the technology.
Baseball makes great books; last good football book I read was on Johnny Unitas; all others since have been filled with jargon to fit the times regardless of the historical past as limited as it is in comparison to baseball.
Football can't match the importance to Baseball in the USA.
