6. Baseball - more than meets the eye
The commissioner of the sport in the 80's was a Ph.D with a heavy arts background, a man of letters and very erudite. A. Bartlet Giamatti, RIP.

I am wary of sports addiction too, but America, and baseball, are vast enough to embrace the highest and the lowest of intellects. The stupid and the sublime. I love art and music as much as you, but my world is big enough for the subtleties and graceful physics of baseball.

I mean, you like "The Family Guy" and yet retain your intellectual integrity. :P Give some of us baseball freaks a break. :D
