I have zero interest in seeing which of the 5 teams with triple the payroll of others will play in the World Series once again. There is absolutely nothing interesting about any of this. The game today consists of a pitcher throwing 100 MPH and a hitter trying to guess right. If he guesses right, it is a home tun. If not, it is a K.

At least with the Globetrotters v the NBA, there are a few different plays run in the NBA, and at least 8 teams with a reasonable chance of winning the championship.
