Football more strategy than baseball? You've gotta be kidding me! Granted, I don't know much about football strategy, I have long since fallen off the football-fan wagon. I find it so incredibly tedious and stupid -- you can't see anything that's going on -- eh, I don't know.
But there is a lot more strategy involved in baseball than the duel between pitcher and hitter! That's only one small part of it -- where to place the infielders, where to place the outfielders, when to steal, when to bunt, where to move the players when the ball's been hit, etc.
Football to me seems like a bunch of meatheads running into each other while the nice-assed receivers run down the field to try to catch the ball. That's about it. Oh -- and that creative-dance routine in the end-zone when they've scored a touchdown -- I suppose that is a nice touch.
