I agree re football. I can't handle it. There's so little action, and the action that occurs guarantees brain damage for at least a handful of players. It's a stupid, stupid sport.

I think baseball's popularity suffered (in part) because of the 3TO problem and things like the shift. Homers are great for results but not great viewing. Same with watching elite-elite-elite fielders gobble up every ground ball. That stuff isn't what makes baseball a fun sport to watch and play.
As a long term baseball fan I think the problem is too many home runs and strike outs. Pitching has gotten really tough. I would like to see things changed. Some ideas -- shorten the distance between the bases by 5 feet. This means that runners could be out ground balls more frequently. Secondly reduce the number of pitchers. One idea would be restrict a team to no more than 3 pitchers per game or perhaps prohibit pitching changes in the middle of an inning.
