Tru...I agree. The NHL and NBA have given us one the most entertaining finals in a very long time. - Krusty Jun 8, 09:25 13
- NHL playoffs have been awesome. I don't think we'll get a more physical game from BOS/VAN then game 3. Refs will be way more on top of things and . - bc/nc Jun 8, 09:31 1

  - This is where we part ways...I love baseball more than any other sport but I understand why people think it's a boring game to watch. - Krusty Jun 8, 09:34 8
    - to me the worst part is just how endless the games are. there's no way i'm spending 3 hours on your average regular season game....nm - x Jun 8, 09:40 3
      - I understand that too. But I like that there's no shot clock or set time. Though I do realize it's a big problem for the average person - Krusty Jun 8, 09:49 2

        it really doesn't help at all (for me, anyway) that there are 162 three hour games....nm - x Jun 8, 09:54
    - yup, I live and breathe baseball, but have no idea how fans of KC and Pitt stay interested. nm -- nm - groiny Jun 8, 09:39 3
      - They play bad baseball, but at least they play fast baseball. - Will Hunting Jun 8, 09:43 2

        I know this was not directed to me but them even attempting that was baffling but they did it justice. It made sense - Epiphany Jun 8, 09:33 1
        
        That's because Edlund wrote it. - the wrong element, bad guy Jun 8, 09:53

  - no wireless. the ones at the demo are wired cause they havent nailed down the battery. -- nm - tRuMaN Jun 8, 09:29
  - 99% sure it isn't. It was probably just wired to keep it from walking away. -- nm - Ender Jun 8, 09:22 1
    - HA! Shove it, Beak--- Oh, Ender? Never mind. -- nm - Mop (205 lbs) Jun 8, 09:23
