Baseball- are you as big of a fan as you once were?

Not so sure about that... I remember as a kid in the late 70s and 80s listening to many a game on the radio. WPIX might have 2-3 a week.

Now you can sub to MLB.tv or if you are a fan of the Yankees don't bother as many of the games are on national cable TV. Granted you need cable, but most have it if they have a TV.
The game itself is tougher to watch though... I watched a few innings of Game 5 and saw CarrotTop come in for the Dodgers in relief and K half the Rays with his 100+ fastball. 

Many years ago I did a MLB park tour while I was traveling for work... the most I spent on a single ticket was $45 (Twins on Father's Day). I did find some deals along the way where I spent a combined $25 for Brewers and Cubs tickets (drove from MKE to CHI for a day/night viewing).
A few years ago I took my folks to a Yankees/Rays game in Tamp... uh St Pete and forked out $300 for 3 seats (behind home plate, but damn). As salaries increased so did ticket cost and since they pay relief pitchers $6 mil to pitch an inning every other day they kinda have to pass that cost along. Still... between higher cost and the ripoff prices on food (Yankee Stadium I am looking at you) the league is catering to businesses and losing the family outings.

But they really don't care as long as those TV contracts keep rising...
