“I don't like comparisons with football. Baseball is an entirely different game. You can watch a tight, well-played football game,but it isn't exciting if half the stadium is empty. The violence on the field must bounce off a lot of people. But you can go to a ball park on a quiet Tuesday afternoon with only a few thousand people in the place and thoroughly enjoy a one-sided game. Baseball has an aesthetic, intellectual appeal found in no other team sport.” PeopleIfsWellsDifferentFoundGamesSportsEnjoyHalfWatchesViolenceTeamFieldsFootballThousandQuietIntellectualEmptyBaseballBallsExcitingAppealsParksComparisonAfternoonAestheticStadiumsBounceTuesdayFootball GameSports TeamOne Sided Author:Bowie Kuhn
“In the temple of science are many mansions, and various indeed are they that dwell therein and the motives that have led them thither. Many take to science out of a joyful sense of superior intellectual power; science is their own special sport to which they look for vivid experience and the satisfaction of ambition; many others are to be found in the temple who have offered the products of their brains on this altar for purely utilitarian purposes.” LooksPurposeFoundSportsBrainSpecialProductsAmbitionIntellectualSatisfactionVariousSuperiorsMotiveTemplesJoyfulVividAltarsMansionsUtilitarian Book:Essays in Science Source: Essays in Science
