I agree, but it's the pace of baseball that kills it as a TV activity. It's just too tempting to reach for the remote sometimes.

Interesting that American pro football is the only one of the top three totally unable to export its product. Truth be told, maybe 10% of Brits living in London find American football even the slightest bit interesting. Baseball, to a great extent, and basketball to a lesser extent have pro leagues around the world.
