Baseball, Basketball and Leg Day

Even if you are like me and are a huge fan of the NFL, this is a good sports time

of year: The Masters just wrapped up, he MLB has started, and the NBA playoffs are about to kick off. My only issue with the MLB and NBA is the length of the season. The NBA plays 82 regular season games and the MLB goes for almost double that at 162 games. At 16 games the NFL is able to keep my apparently very limited attention span. I mean, it is hard to get worked up about the Nationals dropping two out of three games in Boston when there are still 153 games left?!

Today's quote is from Bill Veeck:

"There are only two seasons - winter and Baseball."
