Lmao. Sorry dude, you're off by a bit here...
1, the Owners and players aren't a bunch of money hungry fan hating basterds? Please... like the MLB's never had those before... every league has them... MLB's had shortened seasons a few times too bud... straight up STRIKES over the game... There's no Cap in baseball, it has the least parity of all the sports, but due to that, players make retarded amounts of cash, a lot of times way more, for about 1/3rd of the athleticism there is in other sports...
And... Game broadcasts for 3 hours...? You're talking about that and baseball in the same context? Really? Baseball games can be anywhere from boring 2 hour pitching duals to 5 hour extra inning snoozers... and... the longest baseball play is probably no longer than the average play in football, and theres about a million more of them due to how many pitches are thrown... Dont even try to make such a dumb argument...
Either way, Rugby kicks all of your asses in badasstitude, so shut the fuck up.
