    It's the same thing as soccer. In other countries, all you need is a ball and a little bit of space to play soccer. They'll take their shoes off to make the goals and play in the streets, just to have fun. Here you have to buy the best cleats, the best ball, and then pay a ton of money to play travel soccer or to get the best coaching. In baseball, other countries use milk cartons for gloves and all of that, and they play in the streets or anywhere they can. Here, we have to get the most expensive bats and gloves, pay for the most expensive coaching and teams, and look how interest is down.

    If it keeps going like this, baseball is going to turn out to be like soccer and the international players will be better than most of our players.

    Wait Until The Knights Move Uptown

    Interest in baseball dwindling? The Knights moving uptown will be one of the best things that has ever happened to this city.,,,,,you watch. I predict the fan support to be TREMENDOUS, and I'll be a season ticket holder. Can't wait.

    I think fan interest is there and will always be there. I think the interest in people actually playing the game is going down.
