Being a person who has both played and watched baseball his entire life, I have recently found the sport to no longer excite me. So now I only follow the illegal underground leagues of baseball.
Characteristics of the Illegal Baseball League
*Teams do not have mascots, but blacksmiths who's job is to scrap metal from the fences, and create weapons for the team. (ex: baseball shaped ninja stars for the pitcher)
*Steroids are not reccomended but mandated.
*The losing team gets scalped.
*Instead of kicking dirt when mad, the coach is allowed to cut the umpire's brakes.
*Whether a runner is safe or not is determined by an eskimo knife fight between the runner and infielder.
*In order to make the 'underground' part of their names more authentic, the games are actually played underground in caves or abbandoned mine shafts.
*Catchers are rabid silverback gorillas.
