    I've never understood the appeal of baseball - it doesn't seem the most exciting of sports to watch, or even play.

    I actually love the way Americans can wrestle throughout school, I think that's pretty cool and I would have loved to have done something like that back when I was in school.

    Aww man, GSP is an animal - I have a lot of time for that guy. I have only recently started watching some of the old UFC events where GSP was absolutely dominant. Is there a reason for Rickson over any other Gracie?

    What info would you need me to post and where should I put it?
    Currently grinding live cash games. Life is good.

    Baseball is a collection of very strategic sub-games that are largely separate from each other. Because there's not a lot of overt action (ie: constant tactics like American football, football/soccer or basketball), it harder to watch without a lot of understanding of what's going on. The pitching game is 90 percent of it or more.

    As for Rickson, he's largely considered to be the best JJ practitioner in the world. He's also like a real life cartoon character of manliness. This is like 10 minutes long and has to do with him and his youngest son, but it's great and really explains what I'm talking about:



    Here's another really, really good story he tells that's an excellent example:
