is it me or is one of the dullest games of the year?

Funny, I was just reading a review of Joshua Ferris's new novel, "To Rise Again at a Decent Hour," when I came across this passage from the book, in the review:

?Baseball is the slow creation of something beautiful. It is the almost boringly paced accumulation of what seems slight or incidental into an opera of bracing suspense. The game will threaten never to end, until suddenly it forces you to marvel at how it came to be where it is and to wonder at how far it might go. It?s the drowsy metamorphosis of the dull into the indescribable.?

So there's that, Roy...
