The problem is that the people in this country are infantilized and easy amused by jangling keys. We do have the power to say "No!" to this emptiness. RESIST!
You still get that "old school" experience on TV. Breaks between innings, lack of excesses the park has, allows you to be one with the game. I love being at a park, especially minor league, for full experience occasionally, but give me my chair, a beer, and my rally cap in the living room. Don't get anymore intense than that.
I go to games by myself, I tune out the distractions, I watch from different areas, I also am into photography and document the fans. But like you I love sitting in my chair at home and escape into the game. Thanks for commenting.
Great overview, insight, and comparisons! I love being in a stadium because of the energy, excitement, and flash of how I'm being entertained.
Wow you read that fast, it is a long one...

I couldn't agree more!
Wow. An essay about baseball that explains everything that is happening in our short attention span theatre that we live in. Excellent.
