I was a huge baseball fan growing up, and as a kid I loved watching Tony Kubek and Joe Garagiola on the game of the week every Saturday. And, once we got cable, even though I really wasn't a Cubs fan, summer meant Harry Caray emanating from our tv set. But, the strike of '94 soured me permanently on the game, and I never went back.

I remember some years back when the WS was going to be the Dodgers versus the Astros, and I thought "How the hell can they play each other? They're both in the same division!"
