You can just look in the stands and see the difference now, especially compared to the years after the strike, you see clubs like the Reds filling stands along with the usual great fan bases, even orioles fans are coming to games again. My dad couldnt give way his orioles tickets in the last few years.

    Yeah, MLB needs to be more like the NFL with 27 reviews and 12 TV time outs a game.

    And, oh yeah, red challenge flags.

    I disagree. The Cardinals are one of the most popular teams in the country. The Giants are in a great television area. If I remember right Detroit and St. Louis in 2006 had good ratings.

    Keep talking queer.. You will be needing facial surgery when I'm done with you..

    Just one punch in your glass jaw and you will be sleeping like a baby.. Keep acting that you're a tough guy.. You are fukking 100lbs.. Fukking thin and soft.. One punch and it will all be over, kid..

    Back to the question...

    Tigers have MVP/triple crown winner and last years MVP/Cy Young winner

    Lots of national interest. And international. I went to the game last night with Ford execs from South Africa and Europe.
