Baseball isknownasAmerica’s favorite pasttime.Asmylittle girl startstoplaytee ball,Iam reminded
of howmuchI lovedbaseball growingup.Baseball lostme andalot of those my age mostlybecause all
of ourfavorite playerswere called-outascheatersforusingsteroidsand, of course,time wasanissue
whenI wasin college andnewlymarried. TIME, one of the major reasonsmostpeople donotwatchor
playbaseball anymore.Forall of the golfingfaithful,doesthissoundfamiliar?
Duringmany of my lessonsIhave comparedandcontrastedbaseball andgolf.Theybothhave alot in
common, while alsohavingthe majordifference of the ball movingtowardsyouversusstayingstaticon
the ground.But the maincorrelationbetweenthe twoisthe enormousamounttime eachtakes.Ittakes
an average of 2 hours56 minutesaccordingto ESPN.comfora MLB game.For the average golfer,it
takesaround4 hoursto playa roundof 18 holes.Mostpeople wouldsay thattheydon’thave the time
for eitherone.
So,while bothgolf andbaseball searchforanswers onhow to shortentheirtime requirement without
changingtheircores,myopinionis toleave thembothalone,minussome minoradjustments,and
marketthemfor whatthey are.Both are familyfriendlyandrelaxinggamesthatcanremove youfrom
the busylifestylethatwe live inadailybasis.Iam not yourstereotypical “oldguy”whoisstuckinmy
ways.My wife wouldmore thanlikelytell youthatIact old,butby no meansamI stuck inmy ways.
Baseball andgolf are wonderful forwhattheyare and to completelychange themwouldbe terrible.
So,grab yourfamilyandtake themto the ball fieldandenjoyafunfilledafternoonwiththe family,
