MORINformed's Top 10 Reasons Skateboarding Is Better Than Baseball

By: Tom Morin

Baseball
Since we're in the midst of the World Series of Major League Baseball I figured I'd give 10 reasons skateboarding is better than baseball. And don't get me started on the World Series, a series in which the damn Yankees are going to win, again. What's this going to be their 27th title? Their fans like to brag about how much they win, but it's pretty hard to lose when you buy all the talent. It's like if Starbucks employees bragged about how much more money the coffee giant makes than some indie coffee shop. Anyway, here's the Top 10 Reasons Skateboarding Is Better Baseball:

1. Nothing is considered foul in skateboarding.

2. Skateboarding doesn't make it's females do something totally different.

3. I'd rather have a P-Rod than get an A-Rod.

4. Pretty much everyone in skateboarding can go switch, not everyone in baseball is a switch-hitter.

5. Skateboarding's one hitters make you feel much better.

6. Skateboarding's Reds (bearings) don't totally suck.

7. The only pitchers in skateboarding are at the bar.

8. The only 1st, 2nd and 3rd bases skateboarders know are WAY better.

9. If it rains you can just skateboard inside.

10. Steroids would probably ruin how you skate.

How do you capture the true essence of a skateboarding legend who brought us the MegaRamp, pulled a 360 over the Great Wall of China, launched into a vert ramp from a helicopter, or dropped from the Hard Rock Hotel Guitar 82-feet above the Vegas Strip? Not sure, but we'll get our chance to find out how director Jacob Rosenberg portrays Danny Way in the new feature-length documentary "Waiting for Lightning."

1) if someone cuts a nasty fart during a skate session it's pretty foul

2)When have you seen a chick in a rad team video get the respect she deserves. Sure we don't rag on the girl skaters too much, but we also don't want to go home with one.

3)I'd rather just have an I-pod

4)Skateboarding or baseball...we all use one hand to jerk off

5)There not just skateboarding's one hitters...puff puff pass bitch.

6)The red bearings suck balls dude. Nothing but stall outs and rust.

7)Kenny Anderson...he's a pitcher. This could go back to number 4 as he could switch it up to be a catcher sometimes.

8)These bases are much better...but I'm sure that any professional baseball player runs both bases far more than any skater.

9)Batting cages fool! And do you know how hard it is to find a decent spot that's fully covered from the rain...without getting kicked out?

10) Steroids would most definitely ruin how you skate...but it would sure look funny.
