When it comes to watching sports not playing them, it's all about having something to root for -- a team....a player.....a country. Watching some guy you don't care about walk around a green lining up a putt is like watching someone figure out their next chess move. BUT if you are rooting for him/her it is exciting! Same with baseball...despite the occasional lack of manners. So support and root or find something else to complain about.
Agree. I like to watch both sports, so this is just an observation...

At least in golf, the broadcast can switch between numerous golfers and holes for current "action". As baseball drags along, there is no alternative to the "action" currently on the screen.
