I wanna become a baseball fan!
I had only watched baseball in movies but it didn't look that exciting... Mainly because I wanted the movie plot to progress! But now I have watched KAT-TUN as a group and Kazuya alone with some other athletes and an old pop-star (as far I understood) I am starting to get the gist of it and it can be so exciting! I was so clueless that it hadn't even hit on me where the 'base' part of the name 'baseball' comes from. The only problem is that sometimes things happen so fast that I couldn't realize what happened. Thankfully replays exist for that reason!
I have watched soccer before. The Greek National team. It was exciting. (Just because it was the national team.) But baseball is more intersting partly because the rules are more complicated. And you see things more closely. There is even a Greek National Baseball team. But I have no idea where they play / practice. What I know is that there is no baseball in Greek TV and if I want to watch games I should subscribe to cable TV. Ah well... this is Greece we are talking about. We know little more than dog-singers and soccer or basketball. We would probably judge baseball too 'american'.
