      Unpopular opinion: no sci-fi or fantasy series is worth that much of my time. I watched the pilot and enjoyed it, but I still remember the NOPE moment upon seeing that there were 74 more episodes. There are too many things to read, see, and do in this world for me to invest that kind of couch time into a single work of fiction. Same goes for watching and rewatching Star Wars, etc.

      Same thing also with epic fantasy books. Not going to read 22 phone-book sized tomes filled with eye-glazing minutiae about the brocades on some chicks' dresses and casts/plotlines that are impossible to stay on top of without reference materials, I don't care how much exhortation I get from Game of Thrones and Wheel of Time fans. For WoT, I got fed up after 7 volumes and just read the damn FAQ when the series finally ended (after the author's death). Writers who enjoy the smell of their own farts and who create and milk worlds rather than moving their estimable imaginations on to other things don't deserve my support. If BSG could make an abstract maybe 1/3 the length I'd be all over it.

      TL;DR: TL;DR

      Think it, be it.

                    Isn't that the one where the drunk guys falls into a shelf at a convenience store, and the owner comes after him with a bat, and it's all filmed by a b/w crap quality camera?.. Fucking love baseball man…

                        I'm indifferent/not interested in most sports, but I do enjoy baseball. There's nothing wrong with that Chris, and totally understandable. It can be very boring at times, and with 160+ games, it's a long season. I will say though, that being from Boston, I'm a Red Sox fan and always will be. There's something magical about seeing a game at Fenway that might even change your mind about the game.

                          Fenway is a great park.. Avoid the seats from 1912 if you're taller than 5'6".

                          Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
                          Well, I have others.

                            I have been to Fenway Park. Was not in the old wooden seats. in the newer plastic seats.
                            If you want too get sun burnt then see a foot ball game at the Los Angeles Coliseum. Saw UCLA & USC Here.

                              I have been too most of the older and historic ball parks and arenas The best one for Me was the old Chicago Stadium. Saw a lot of hockey games here.

                                The seats at the old Boston Garden were wooden and old and tight. And it got hot has hell inside no air conditioning.

                                  I can't stand watching baseball on television unless it's late in the season, but I do love going to the ballpark and drinking for 9 innings.
                                  Will be in DC to see the Braves play, growing up in Atlanta I can't deny being a Braves fan.

                                    Nationals Stadium is great. Of the newer parks, Camden Yards and Nationals Stadium are at the top of my list. I've seen several games there as well as Springsteen.

                                          That's the best unpopular opinion I've seen in a long time G. Naturally, I don't agree with you because your opinion is ludicrous 😛
