“1994: The year I stopped caring about baseball.”

Same here! That strike turned me off to baseball.

And Krapperdick and the reaction to him did that for me for football.

Now I’m pretty much cured of the addiction to all the “opiods of the people”- which includes TV, movies, sports... Life is so much better.

I’m left with one addiction - FR.

Same here.

Living in San Diego we were Tony Gwynn fans. In 1994 he was knocking on .400, the most thrilling stat race I’d known. Ted Williams had last batted .406 in 1941. When the season was cancelled he was .394 in 110 games played. He still had the highest NL BA since 1930.

That early cancelled 1994 season was it for me and baseball.
