MLB WS的收視率在92年以前都在20%以上 現在都少10%一點 也被NBA超過
下降幅度非常驚人

裡面的劇情就是一堆中年老爸要小學生去打棒球比賽
小孩完全沒興趣不想打 兩邊都在討論怎麼樣輸才不會用去打洲冠軍比賽
然後家長在觀眾席上超HIGH狂講垃圾話嗆裁判超激動 雙方家長還打起來
小孩就是''No more baseball! We want to play video games!''
''Come on! You hate baseball than any of us.''
但家長都是超級狂熱棒球迷 小孩拿州冠軍比自己生命還重要似的XD
小孩贏球家長帶他們去餐廳慶祝 家長興奮的喝啤酒說自己小孩打得多好
小孩卻跟99等的角色被刪除一樣 完全沒精神
這是那篇分析文的節錄:
For 4 straight years and 5 out of the last 6, the NBA has beat MLB for their
championship series. Sure there are plenty of theories for MLB's declining
ratings. The audiences are getting older and baseball is struggling with
younger fans. Football's growth and dominance in the marketplace has led to
much stiffer competition during the World Series. And there's just more
things to watch on TV than ever before, especially in the fall. When it
takes place in June, the NBA doesn't quite face the same competiton.
But the facts of this chart make a case for themselves. The NBA once drew
half the rating of the World Series 30 years ago. Now the NBA Finals
consistently outrate the World Series. That's a stunning transformation.
It's not all sunshine and lollipops for the NBA, though. The NBA's ratings
have also declined since the mid-80s, but at least they've shown a bit more
staying power thanks to the renewal of the Lakers-Celtics rivalry and the
emergence of LeBron James. Nevertheless, LeBron is no Michael Jordan in
ratings. In fact, the NBA hasn't even reached two-thirds of the audience
from the 1998 finals in the 16 years since the last Bulls championship.
It's a different world now with hundreds of channels and competitors for live
sports. Outside the NFL and the Super Bowl, no sport is going to draw the
same ratings they did 30 years ago. Now the major question is what this
chart will look like over the next 30 years. Will the NBA continue to stay
ahead of MLB or can baseball find a way to reverse course and grow their
audience once again?
難道現在美國小孩真的都不打棒球? 也不看MLB?
